The latest bargaining information for AT&T Mobility (Orange), DirecTV (Orange), ABC-Disney, Evoque Data Center Solutions, the Sunrise Movement, and OFS Fitel.

The Orange Bargaining Team continues to meet daily with the Company. We have made progress on most issues important to all groups covered by the Orange Contract. We have spent the last several months of bargaining focused on making improvements to just about every aspect of your work lives, and we believe we are close to securing a contract that will do just that.

First of all, the Bargaining Team realizes that this process has been a long and sometimes frustrating one for all of you. As we have stated many times, we are going to bargain as long as it takes to get a contract that you have earned and deserve. We are pleased to report that we continue to make significant progress at the bargaining table. Some important issues remain, but we are making improvements every day.

As stated in the last few bargaining reports, we continue to make good progress at the bargaining table. It is very clear to the Bargaining Team that this progress is a direct result of the mobilization going on out in the field. In order to get us to a fair and equitable contract, we need every member covered by the Orange Contract to step up mobilization! You are doing a great job, KEEP FIGHTING!

Bargaining has continued this week and thanks to the escalated mobilization efforts of our membership, progress is still being made at the table on various key issues. However, we are still very far apart on many others and have a long way to go in reaching our goal of a fair contract. It is unacceptable that a corporation that brags about its best first quarter in ten years bring just pennies to the bargaining table.
