After striking and picketing outside of several Verizon Wireless stores, Communications Workers of America (CWA), International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), and Verizon have reached a bargaining agreement. Union members will return to work on Tuesday, August 23.
Both AFGE National Secretary-Treasurer J. David Cox and National Vice President/Women’s Fair Practices Director Augusta Thomas joined other AFGE activists to rally in support of CWA and IBEW members.
In a statement released by CWA and IBEW, both unions declared their gratitude for the support: “We appreciate the unity of our members and the support of so many in the greater community. Now we will focus on bargaining fairly and moving forward.”
