We wish to inform you that the tentative agreement on our collective bargaining agreement has been rejected by our membership – of the Members who voted it was rejected by 58%

Today CWA District 9 released the details of the Tentative Agreement that was reached between the union and AT&T.

We have reached a tentative agreement with AT&T on a new collective bargaining agreement.

CWA District 9 has published a blog post in which they present a letter from various members of Congress who show their support for CWA Members who are in contract negotiations with AT&T.

The company consistently digs in with its take-it-or-leave-it approach to bargaining. The most significant hurdle we’re facing is AT&T’s refusal to pay retroactive wages

Negotiations have slowed as your bargaining team strives to secure a contract that truly reflects the best interests of our members.

Things are fluid as we attempt to move a package proposal that improves the members’ lives—the details of the package change with each pass as we work to move in a positive direction.

We are still light years apart and we refuse to settle for a substandard contract. AT&T is pushing for a contract that only benefits them.

We are optimistic regarding the movement at the table, and it appears the membership’s actions could be the result of it. We acknowledge your support, and it’s appreciated
