Taking a Stand Against Verizon Job Cuts

Members of Local 2222 braved cold weather this week for an early morning protest against Verizon's plan to cut 1,000 jobs in Maryland, Virginia and D.C.

CWAers held demonstrations in Herndon and Centerville, Va., to reinforce CWA's message that Verizon's job cuts are bad for customers, workers and communities.

CWA print and radio ads have been carrying that message to the public, pointing out that Verizon is one of the nation's most profitable companies and that the job cuts raise service quality concerns for customers.
