(Portland, OR) -- Advanced practice providers represented by the Oregon Nurses Association have rejected a tentative contract agreement with Legacy Health and voted to continue their strike. Union officials say the proposed deal failed to make meaningful progress and would leave providers about 10-percent behind peers at other health systems. The strike has been ongoing since Dec. 2 as workers push for higher pay and improved working conditions. Legacy Health says it respects the vote and plans to return to the bargaining table.
