Across the country, CWA members turned out for the National Day of Solidarity for Verizon Workers, joined by union, progressive and community allies at hundreds of rallies and events.

Five New York CWA activists spent the day on Capitol Hill Wednesday, lobbying lawmakers to stop the deal between Verizon Wireless and a coalition of cable companies that would create an unchecked monopoly in the industry.

Federal officials slapped Verizon with a heavy fine Monday for "repeat and serious" workplace safety violations linked to the death of technician Douglas Lalima, a member of CWA Local 1109, last fall.
