Hundreds of nurses came together in Rockland to rally against a company that published an ad allegedly discriminating against Haitians.
About 500 people from New York's largest nurses' union held a digital candlelight vigil in Nanuet Wednesday night.
They sat inside their tour buses parked in the lot of Interim Healthcare, the company that created the ad.
The nurses peacefully protested a Pennysaver ad asking for female nurses, but no Haitians.
After the ad was published, the Interim Healthcare president posted an apology on the company's website.
