The legacy of the brave Americans who fought for their rights 43 years ago lives on as today?s workers stand strong against a fierce new wave of attacks. Here are snapshots of some of the battles CWA activists and allies are waging across the country.

Proving that solidarity is the key to victory, 4,400 determined CWA members at Kaleida Health in Buffalo, N.Y., learned early Tuesday that instead of taking a scheduled strike vote, they'll soon be casting ballots for a new two-year contract.

They called it the "Million Signature March," but 1.3 million would be more accurate. The final, stunning number of petition signatures that a lively parade of Ohioans delivered Wednesday to their secretary of state's office was, to be precise, 1,298,301.

CWA locals statewide and the entire union movement are united in plans to protect collective bargaining, negotiate a fair state contract, and save workers' jobs while protecting and maintaining critical services in the state.

Putting aside any rivalries, NABET-CWA members working at competing broadcast TV news stations in Chicago marched in solidarity last week to demand fair contracts from three media giants.
