Message from French Unions

To:  All Alcatel-Lucent members

Friday we received the attached leaflet and petition from the French Trade Unions that represent Alcatel-Lucent.  We think it's a terrific idea and a good send-off to Pat as she makes her much-deserved exit from the company she helped destroy.  We already notified those Unions that we will do everything we can to get the word out and get this signed by members all over the United States.

Please use every means that you can to share this with your co-workers, fill it out, and get it back to us.  To cut out a step, you can fax them directly here at 202-434-1308 because the French unions want as many as they can get by this Friday.  If you have the ability to scan documents, you can scan the signed petitions and email them back to me at lunger@cwa-union.org.  I know it is short notice, but they want to get them to "Pattie" before she leaves.

This can send a good message to the new leadership of Alcatel-Lucent that all its Unions – in the United States and in Europe – will act together for fairness from this Company. 

In Unity,

Laura Unger
CWA Representative
