TAMPA --

Protesting what they say is unfair treatment, dozens of nurses took their frustration to the streets of Ybor City today.

The members of National Nurses United marched as part of a statewide campaign to reduce patient loads, promote patient advocacy and provide whistleblower protections. In addition to legislative action, the nurses said they plan to pursue collective bargaining agreements for colleagues across Florida.
