The decision for ANA to terminate its affiliation agreements with the Center for American Nurses and the United American Nurses along with the decision of several state nurses associations (Ohio, New York, and others) to disaffiliate from the United American Nurses and start the National Federation of Nurses is a mess.
I know of several nurses here in my district (Southwestern Ohio Nurses Association) who are questioning the logic of what's going on at the state and national level, the timing, and whether or not its in their best interest to continue membership in these organizations.
See this petition started by Pat Kane, a long term member of the New York State Nurses Association and a collective bargaining unit member. http://www.petitiononline.com/disNFN/petition.html
