A Message From The President
The Executive Board welcomes all Communications Workers of America, AFL,CIO Local 1120 members to our web page. The purpose of this web page is to provide a means of supplying information about our local and labor issues. To all cwa local 1120 members. I want to thank all of my fellow union brothers and sisters for their commitment, and determination in keeping our local strong. Together we can overcome any challenge that we may face.
James Gescheidle
President, CWA Local 1120
We must guard against being fooled by false slogans, such as ‘right to work.’ It is a law to rob us of our civil rights and job rights.
Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining by which unions have improved wages and working conditions of everyone…Wherever these laws have been passed, wages are lower, job opportunities are fewer and there are no civil rights. We do not intend to let them do this to us. We demand this fraud be stopped. Our weapon is our vote.”
Martin Luther King

This is a reminder that Verizon members need to retake the Health assessment to earn the $100 premium reduction for 2021. We have continued to request Verizon to postpone it for 2021 but they have not agreed. They have agreed to extend the time period to the end of February 2021. Verizon will be sending out reminders and have updated the About You page with the extension until the end of February. Currently CWA Local 1120 has 147 Verizon members that have NOT taken the assessment. To access the Health Assessment go to www.verizon.com/aboutyou login and then go to benefits connection.

With just a few days left for Gov. Cuomo to sign the Broadband Data Collection bill to study the impact of broadband access throughout NYS, we need to make sure he gets the message loud and clear: EVERY New York household needs affordable broadband access and the first step is getting an accurate picture of who doesn’t have access now.
Call 855-979-3344 right now to urge the Governor to sign this important bill TODAY.
