HARTFORD, Conn. — Gov. Ned Lamont said the state is very close to negotiating a "basic" four-year agreement with the nursing union to prevent a proposed strike set for Friday.
"I am very hopeful that this strike has been averted," he said during a press conference Thursday afternoon, adding that a "basic agreement" had been reached between SEIU and state nursing home operators.
The agreement would include a 10.7% raise that will be spread over the four years, which Lamont said would mean "substantial" raises for nursing home workers.
