As the SEIU strike against Sutter Health continues in California a 60 year old patient at the California Pacific Medical Center says she was physically stopped from entering the facility and forced to change a t-shirt that supported the strikers. Sally Goldin's t-shirt said "On Strike for Quality Healthcare At Sutter Hospitals". A security guard stopped her from entering and insisted she change the shirt before being allowed in for a physical therapy appointment. Eight hundred SEIU health care workers are on strike against Sutter.
