AT&T Mobility Tentative Agreement
After almost a year of hard bargaining and unprecedented mobilization, we have
reached a groundbreaking tentative agreement for members under the Orange
contract at AT&T Mobility. Never before have we seen this level of mobilization
for a fair contract, and never before have we won so much at the bargaining
table.
|
| AT&T Mobility |
|
Over the past few days, CWA and AT&T have been involved in intensive negotiations.
Terry,
We have an urgent request.
|
| "AT&T's “Final Offer” |
|
By now you have seen the company’s latest very public “final offer.” While at face value the company’s final offer may seem reasonable to some, the company has by-passed your Bargaining Committee in an attempt to sway our membership.
|
| AT&T Mobility Bargaining |
|
This morning AT&T put out an email aimed at misleading and dividing CWA members about bargaining.
AT&T did not pass proposals to address any of the issues that our bargaining team has been discussing with them since May and they continue to refuse to provide the information we need to bargain.

CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining
October 13, 2017 – Bargaining Report #57
This morning AT&T sent out an email to our membership that begs clarification. While
not exactly fake news, it is misleading and aimed at dividing our membership.
As we last reported, AT&T did pass proposals last week.

Mark,
My name is Tiffany. I’m a retail worker in New York City and a proud member of CWA Local 1101.
This weekend's iPhone launch is super important to AT&T and it’s essential that we act like a union. Join us in wearing stickers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to show our unity and let the public know what we’re fighting for.

Thank you to everyone who joined us on last night's AT&T Mobility Bargaining Update Town Hall Call.

June 9, 2017 – Bargaining Report #47
This week has been another week of nothing from AT&T. Other than a brief
meeting earlier in the week to discuss multi-lingual differential, the
Company has shown no interest in getting to a fair and equitable contract.
The Union stands on our demands and will not back down.

June 2, 2017 – Bargaining Report #46
The Company has not offered any new proposals since the strike. While we are happy
to receive some of the data we requested, the Company continues to insist on

May 25, 2017 – Bargaining Report #45
Since returning from the strike, and because of your courage, the company

May 22, 2017 – Bargaining Report #44
First and foremost, The Bargaining Team would like to thank and
congratulate the Membership for their historic participation in this
weekend’s strike! The picket lines and rallies throughout the country were
strong and sent a clear message to the Company.
|
| Why We Strike |
|
Jeff Reamer,
Allow me to clear something up since I've been living in a hotel away from my family since January 23rd and in bargaining with this greedy corporation fighting for a contract for all of you. The comments I'm seeing about losing 2 days pay, not being scheduled but having to picket, why am I obligated, etc. are making me sick to my stomach.
|
| AT&T Bargaining Report #43 |
|
CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining
May 18, 2017 – Bargaining Report #43
Since CWA notified AT&T that a strike was imminent without significant
movement at the bargaining table, the Company has rejected all of our
proposals for title upgrades and offered nothing that would get us to a deal.
|
| Friday's Deadline |
|
Good afternoon Sisters and Brothers, If you are not scheduled Friday please take your personal belongings home with you this evening. If a walk out is called at 3pm tomorrow, you are to clock out and join your Sisters & Brothers in front of your store to picket. Someone from the Local will be at each individual store with picket signs and strike literature.

One of the key issues the Bargaining Team is focusing on is Job Security.
As the company looks toward the future, so does the Union. Job Security
can take shape in many forms, but any way you look at it, it is a major
issue.

April 28, 2017 – Bargaining Report #39

|
CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining
April 6, 2017 – Bargaining Report #35
As we have been telling you since the beginning of bargaining, the company is refusing to provide all the information the union has requested. It is impossible to formulate certain proposals with missing information.
|
| AT&T Mobility |
|
This morning, CWA gave notice to AT&T Mobility management that we are exercising our right to terminate the Orange Contract in 72 hours. That doesn't mean we are going on strike, but it means we are one step closer.
Back in February, the union and management reached an agreement to extend the contract.

AT&T West
On the one-year anniversary of their contract expiration, 800 AT&T West workers took to the streets to march against corporate greed and rally for a fair contract.
Gathering around one of the busiest intersections in San Jose, CA – right outside an AT&T Mobility store – CWA activists demonstrated that they are all in this fight together.

CWA / AT&T 2017 “Orange” Contract Bargaining
March 27, 2017 – Bargaining Report #32
As Bargaining continues, the Company’s response has been more of the

apart.

| Unity @ Mobility |
|
Terry,
We will accomplish nothing at the bargaining table without each and every one of us taking action for a fair contract at AT&T Mobility. One of us alone is powerless, but with all of us standing side by side, we are powerful. We have to use that power!
Our Day of Action in February was huge - thousands of us came out to rallies and informational pickets across the country.

The Union and company remain very far apart on all issues important to our members. The Bargaining Team is not here to settle, we are here to fight and we feel energized by all the mobilization we see across the Orange Contract footprint. AT&T is greedy and their proposals are unfair and appalling.
