CWA Members to Take Part in Poor People's Campaign Assembly

On June 29, hundreds of CWA members and retirees from across the country will gather for the “Mass Poor People’s and Low-Wage Workers Assembly and Moral March on Washington, D.C., and to the Polls.” CWA President Claude Cummings Jr. will address the crowd along with federal call center workers at Maximus who are organizing with CWA.

CWA and other unions will stand in solidarity with moral and religious leaders, civil rights advocates, and activists to demand that our elected leaders center the voices of working families and embrace an agenda that works for everyone, not just those at the top. We will uplift the necessity of transformative public policies that eliminate poverty, expand democracy, strengthen health care, raise the living wage, fund public education, protect women’s rights, and so much more.

Please join us! We will meet at CWA Headquarters (501 3rd St. NW, Washington, D.C. 20001) on the morning of June 29 at 8:00 a.m. A continental breakfast will be provided. Members of the CWA Human Rights Committee will act as marshals and will escort CWA members to the rally location.
