Nurses at The University of Illinois Hospital & Health Sciences System, known as UI Health, wrapped up day one of their strike Wednesday afternoon.

This is the second strike the union has gone on this year. Leaders among the group met at least twice with the hospital on today.

Union Members said they’ve been fighting for a new contract for months, and while there has been some progress made, they believe the proposed 2% wage increase is just not enough for the nurses.

Negotiations continue this hour and the workers said they’ll wait it out at as long as it takes to meet their demands.
