Five years ago, on Memorial Day Weekend, CWA workers covered under the Orange Contract had recently returned from their historic strike at AT&T Mobility. The strike was unprecedented and sent a message of solidarity and strength to the Company. Building on that strength, and the current mobilization, we are close to a fair and equitable contract. It has been a long and hard process, and we know it’s been frustrating at times for you, but all the gains we are making at the bargaining table are due to your efforts. Keep up the fight a little longer and we will get what you deserve from this company. Let AT&T know that even though we are close, you will fight until the end. We continue to work under the terms and conditions of the previous contract, while either side can terminate this agreement with 72-hours notice, we do not foresee such events taking place.
Please keep all of the military members who have died, and their families, in your thoughts throughout this Memorial Day Weekend. We wish you all a safe and healthy weekend, and we will update you again next week. Stay Mobilized and Stay United!\
WE will prevail—ONE DAY LONGER, ONE DAY STRONGER!!
