Great C&T Mobilization Continues!

Just released, the 17th edition of the AFL-CIO national and state-by-state profiles on worker safety and health in the United States reveals that in 2006, 5,840 workers died from workplace injuries, compared with 5,734 in 2005. The figures show a continued and significant increase in fatalities among Latino and foreign-born workers.

We want to recap what has gone on at the table since expiration at 11:59 on April 4.

Shari Wojtowicz, our Mobilization Coordinator, has created a picture show set to the Mobilization music.

In the past 48 hours, hundreds of CWA Locals nationwide held vigils, demonstrations, memorial services, and strike preparation parties.
