CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining February 01, 2017 – Bargaining Report #8 With Groundhog Day rapidly approaching, the Bargaining Team saw a lot of the same old nonsense from greedy AT&T. The company continues to fill information requests at a snail’s pace and large portions of pertinent data are missing! This is a classic stall tactic and we believe they are so embarrassed by their own actions and behaviors that they don’t want to pass the information! The Union will not tolerate the company’s tactics. We spent the day huddled with our legal team combing through the data we already received and planning our next moves! AT&T’s greed is on full display at bargaining and their hostility towards their employees is appalling. Mobilization will be accelerating leading up to contract expiration. The Bargaining Committee continues to focus on job security, wages and better benefits! We need all members covered under the Orange Contract- MOBILIZED, UNIFIED and ANGRY! Stay strong Sisters and Brothers!! In Solidarity, Mike Baxter, Local 1101 Frank Oliva, Local 1298 Deb Casey, Local 2204 Jeff Reamer, Local 13000 Julie Daloisio, Local 13500 Holly Sorey, Local 4202 Glen Skeen, Local 4320 Hector Capote, Local 7250 Debbie Goulet, Local 7803 Joe Sison, Local 9412 Brandon Beck, Local 9511 Pat Telesco, District 1, Chair Tonya Moore, District 1
