It also makes sense from an anti-union point of view. Nurses who leave to travel make the union weaker.

The unions also make the nurse's salaries weaker. AHN's nurses union just helped get the nurses an increase in wages, but raised their union dues because of the work they did to get the wage increase, and the union due hike actually is more expensive than the wage increase. It just seems like at least the nurse's unions in Pittsburgh aren't the best at advocating for nurse's wages

There’s only one Union in Pittsburgh, not plural. Only AGH nurses get a Union.
