Regional Bargaining Report 9: Get Ready to Rally

CWA District 1, IBEW Local 2213 and IBEW New England Local and Regional Bargaining Committees resumed negotiations with Verizon at the Ryetown Hilton in Rye, NY today. The committees presented additional union proposals. The committees also pressed the company for answers on questions from previous session. The company will be providing some of those answers tomorrow. The Company has not responded to any of our proposals at the Regional table. Discussions will resume tomorrow.

Locals should continue conducting their strike votes and preparing for the July 30, 2011 rally at Verizon Headquarters at 140 West St in NY City. The Rally will begin at 11 AM. Members from all areas of the Verizon footprint will be joining us in the fight to protect our wages, benefits and working conditions. Every member from every Local should be at this Rally to send a message to Verizon.
