CWA Leaders Fight Back against Economic Injustice

CWA Secretary-Treasurer Sara Steffens (center) and AFA-CWA President Sara Nelson (right) spoke at a Poor People's Campaign press conference this week in Washington, D.C., expressing their commitment to fighting back against the structures that are undermining our democracy and supporting economic injustice. 

"The corporate CEOs and their Wall Street enablers, there's never enough for them. That's what we're up against every day in our unions," said Steffens.

"A lot of people like to say it's the rich and powerful...they're just rich. They just have resources. We have power. Solidarity is a force stronger than gravity," said Nelson.

The Poor People's Campaign is planning a Moral March on Washington for June 20, 2020. For more information visit https://www.poorpeoplescampaign.org/june2020/.
