Verizon Contract Extension Ratified by Majority of District 1 Members

After coming to a tentative agreement with the company in early March during a third round of early bargaining, the majority of members in CWA District 1 voted over the past several weeks to ratify contract extensions at Verizon, Verizon Wireless Retail, and Verizon Wireless Tech.

Members represented by CWA District 2-13 in Mid-Atlantic, IBEW New England, IBEW New York and IBEW New Jersey, who bargain alongside District 1, also overwhelmingly ratified their agreements.

The agreements, covering roughly 9,000 members across fifteen locals in New York and New England, will extend the contracts through August 3, 2030.

Highlights of the agreements can be found here.

Also finalized and ratified was the agreement between CWA and Verizon to move CWA members currently employed by Frontier Communications in New York into our Verizon bargaining units following the sale of Frontier to Verizon.
