Regional Bargaining Report # 19: Time is running out

CWA District 1/IBEW Local 2213 and IBEW New England Regional Committees met today at the Rye Town Hilton in Rye, NY. With just 3 days before contract expiration, your bargaining committee spent the day reviewing data received from the company and also evaluating our proposals. We have rejected all but one of the Company’s proposals and we told them yesterday that they need to address our issues. We are still waiting for the Company to respond to our proposals.

The Company needs to get serious and begin bargaining with your Union. The clock is ticking and time is running out.

Verizon seems hell-bent on destroying the middle class jobs CWA and IBEW have fought so hard to create over the last 50 years of collective bargaining.

It is time that Verizon invests in America and brings Good Jobs back into the bargaining unit. Corporations like Verizon should not be destroying middle class jobs. They should be helping to rebuild the American economy and sharing their success with the workforce that made that possible.  

It’s time to fight back!
