CWA / ATTM Orange CBA - Bargaining Report #22

CWA / AT&T 2026 “Orange” Contract Bargaining 

April 17, 2026 – Bargaining Report #22

The Orange Bargaining Committee continues bargaining with AT&T. The last couple of weeks have seen some progress at the table, but we do remain far apart on some important issues. We know that the recent progress is a result of the continued mobilization by the members of CWA. 

We are going to fight as long as it takes to bring you a fair and equitable contract. As we have said before, we know this process can be frustrating as it drags on, but we will not be done until we get what we need from this greedy corporation. Don’t forget that AT&T is a billion-dollar corporation, with millionaires for executives. We believe a living wage and good benefits are not a lot to ask for. AT&T has more than enough wealth and should share it with the employees that generate it. 

We have signed a one-week extension and will continue bargaining.  The new expiration date for our current contract is Friday, April 24, 2026.

Stay mobilized! Stay angry!
