SEIU Healthcare Illinois union workers plan to go on strike in early May if they don’t get better wages. The nursing home workers’ union said the group has gone more than a year without a new contract and that more than 5,000 workers will strike starting if there is no contract agreement by May 4th. An attorney for management did not return requests for comment.
