Press Releases

In a historic step forward for workers organizing in tech, Communications Workers of America Organizing Director Tom Smith and Glitch CEO Anil Dash announced that employees at Glitch will join CWA Local 1101. Glitch voluntarily recognized the union after it demonstrated that a strong majority of the workers supported joining CWA and authorized CWA to be their bargaining representative.

As coronavirus continues to spread across the United States, workers launch public campaign to urge Verizon Wireless and T-Mobile to provide a safe workplace, quota relief and paid sick days without penalty.

Joining together in a union is the best way for workers to protect their jobs, wages, and other interests over the long run if the T-Mobile/Sprint merger proceeds.

CWA announced that the United States Call Center Worker and Consumer Protection Act, introduced in the House by Reps. David McKinley (R-WV) and Mark Pocan (D-WI), with a companion Senate bill from Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), has reached more than 120 cosponsors in Congress — signaling a building wave of momentum for bringing back call center jobs in the U.S. 

AT&T’s President and Chief Operating Officer John Stankey announced yesterday that the company would purchase another $4 billion in stock buybacks next quarter, in addition to the $4 billion the company repurchased this quarter.
