Honoring 50 Years of SEIU Local 722
February, 2026
For fifty years, SEIU Local 722 has stood as a powerful advocate for healthcare workers and the labor community. Since receiving our charter on January 25, 1975, we have fought for fair wages, strong benefits, safe working conditions, and dignity on the job often leading the way before these protections became standard.
From securing guaranteed hours, shift differentials, and paid holidays to negotiating a $15 minimum wage ahead of government action, Local 722 has always pushed progress forward. We’ve strengthened worker power through education, scholarships, leadership development, and organizing proving that even a smaller local can make a lasting impact.
Today, we stand on the shoulders of those who came before us, proud of how far we’ve come and committed to the work ahead. The fight continues, and together, we will keep building a stronger future for the next generation of workers.
