A memorial to Don DiFranco, a member of NABET-CWA and a WABC-TV technician who died atop the World Trade Center on September 11, has been given a prominent, permanent spot in the television station's lobby in NYC.
Nearly 3,300 Cingular employees in District 9 became CWA members within a two-week period in October capping one of the most rapid growth spurts the union has experienced in years.
CWA and other union members battling Proposition 75 on the California special election ballot got a boost when Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and former Sen. John Edwards sent e-mails to their supporters, urging them to vote "no."
