It is very important for members to know how anti-labor policies can and will impact our rights to organize and collectively bargain. Labor policies and corporate policies differ greatly. Please sign up and join us for our CWA Local 1298 webinar to discuss CWA Union Strong 2024:Protecting Labor Rights . This forum is the follow up to our discussion held during the recent membership meeting. Here we will outline and discuss how these policies affect UNIONS and UNION members and why it is important to know exactly what is at stake as it pertains to our ability to organize and the impact on OUR livelihoods.
