After CEO Ignores Concerns, UFCW 3000 Delivers Petition Demanding Restoration of Gender-Affirming Care at Seattle Children’s NOW

After resuming gender-affirming surgery for trans patients under 19 years old in February, Seattle Children’s Hospital has yet again halted those surgeries, abandoning its commitment to providing comprehensive, life-saving treatment to all patients.

In response, our union delivered a petition supported by more than 2,200 union members and community leaders demanding an immediate reversal of this decision.

We’re also calling on Washington State Attorney General Nick Brown to investigate the hospital for potential violations of state laws against gender discrimination.
