Talks End Between Minnesota Hospitals and Nurses Association, Strike Scheduled for Thursday

The Minnesota Nurses Association and 14 Minneapolis/St. Paul-area hospitals were unable to reach an agreement on contract negotiations last week, and talks between the groups have ceased, causing the nurses to move forward with plans for a one-day strike this Thursday, according to a report by the Star Tribune.
