New York Attorney General Letitia James told striking nurses their hospitals can stop the labor shortage after officials filled striking nurses' positions with temporary workers.

Union leaders and supporters, at a news conference Monday, highlighted staffing shortages as the key reason for a strike. "Thank-yous are no longer enough, the applauses are no longer enough. We need a fair contract," Borough President of Manhattan Mark Levine said.
