CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining

March 27, 2017 – Bargaining Report #32

As Bargaining continues, the Company’s response has been more of the same greed and stall tactics. Multiple information requests by the Union remain partially or completely unfulfilled. The Company is showing no urgency toward bargaining a fair contract. The Union has made over 30 proposals to date but many of them cannot be fully addressed because of the Company’s delays. We continue discussions around wages, commissions, benefits, safety and other important issues, but we remain extremely far apart on all major items.

Over the last several days mobilization events have continued with great enthusiasm and turnout. The Bargaining team thanks you for your extraordinary efforts. Stay mobilized, stay unified and together we will win!

Stay strong Brothers and Sisters!!
