After almost a year of bargaining and unprecedented mobilization we have reached a groundbreaking tentative agreement for members under the Orange contract at AT&T Mobility. 

Talks continued this week and the Union passed our full counter proposal to the company that includes all those issues you’ve identified as a priority in this round of bargaining.

What a week! Instead of waiting until Tuesday, November 7th, which is the earliest day AT&T was available to meet face to face, they tried to go around us and directly to you.

The company's "final offer" is an attempt to divide us. 

Listen to the town hall call from October 19. 

This week the CWA bargainers met to review our proposals and outstanding data requests, and to prepare responses to AT&T’s recent proposals, which did not address the issues that we have been talking to them about for months.

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.

AT&T passed CWA several proposals this week and our Committee spent the week reviewing the proposals along with our open data requests to see what AT&T has still failed to provide us.

The bargaining committees met this week and discussed monitoring in the Retail stores and Call Centers, and the Company’s unilateral changes to the MI-60 assignment in the Call Centers. We will revisit this next week when bargaining reconvenes.

AT&T Mobility workers, members of CWA from several states, met with Members of Congress to speak about how AT&T’s offshoring and its third party dealer structure are harming workers.

The Bargaining Committee and the Company met today to continue our dialogue on the Company’s proposed changes to Retail commissions for September and October, which many of you saw posted previously on the My CSP.

This week bargaining focused on commission changes AT&T has planned for September and October.

The CWA and AT&T bargainers met this week via phone conference.

There have been no meetings scheduled with the Company this week.

Here are the key things we are fighting for, and what the company's response has been so far.

The Company continues making changes to different systems, working conditions and policies since the contract has expired.

The Union and Company met today and discussed several issues that have come up over the last several weeks

The Union has spent this week reviewing data received from AT&T as well as all the information we have received from members highlighting the ongoing issues of wrongdoing by management.

This week has been another week of nothing from AT&T.

The Company has not offered any new proposals since the strike.

Since returning from the strike, and because of your courage, the company has been filling many of the open information requests.

Finally, after months of stalling, the company started filling the data requests that had been left unanswered until the strike.

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.
