New E-Newsletter Keeps CWA Members Up to Date on Congress

CWA's Legislative Department has launched an electronic newsletter to help CWA members stay up to date with a busy schedule of bills and administrative actions that are critical to working families.

From the Employee Free Choice Act to health care reform and 21st-century jobs, Legislative Spotlight "is a new, bi-weekly report that will bring members the latest news from our lobbying team and CWA activists around the country," CWA Executive Vice President Annie Hill said.

To subscribe, go to http://www.cwa-legislative.org/subscribe.html.

The first edition spotlights CWA's priorities in working with the new Administration and Congress, with the Employee Free Choice Act topping the list. Other key issues are health care reform, the appointment of National Mediation Board members who will protect airline workers' collective bargaining rights, reform of unfair trade laws and retirement security.

"All our hard work around the election wasn't the end, but just the beginning of our effort to restore the middle class and a government that focuses on working families," Hill said.
