In a major victory, an overwhelming majority, 98 percent, of graduate student Research Assistants of the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) have voted for union representation with CWA in an official NLRB election.

CWA welcomes President Biden's announcement that he is running for re-election. We are looking forward to continuing to work with the Biden administration on policies that put America's working families first

We are saddened and outraged by the cruel and violent murder of Alex Dolorosa, a union organizer and a paralegal with the BPO Industry Employee Network (BIEN) in Bacolod, Philippines. Unfortunately, his tragic murder only reinforces the reason that the Philippines repeatedly is ranked annually as one of the world’s deadliest countries for worker organizers. Our hearts go out to his family, friends and colleagues at BIEN at this horrible time.
