The Service Employees International Union-United Healthcare Workers West has submitted signatures to qualify a hospital executive pay measure for the Nov. 8 ballot, according to a Los Angeles Times report.
The measure would generally limit salaries and other perks for executives at private and some public hospitals to $450,000 — the salary of the president of the United States.
The initiative would allow the California attorney general to enforce those salary mandates and could affect "a few hundred" hospital executives in the state, one ballot analysis revealed, according to the report.
