CWA is working with Professors Virginia Doellgast of Cornell University and Sean O’Brady of McMaster University to conduct this survey to better understand the implications of Artificial Intelligence in the workplace.

You should have received an email on February 5, 2026 with a request to participate in a CWA District 6 poll about the two candidates running for the U.S. Senate.

Please take a few minutes to read about the endorsed candidates and fill out the form. The District is asking for this to be completed by February 15, 2026.

During last night’s Membership Meeting, the CWA Local 6132 Bylaws were amended to ensure that the integrity of mail in ballots would be sufficiently protected. President Thornburg wishes to thank each and every one of you who participated in this process to save money while at the same time making sure that the integrity of the voting process is maintained. A special thanks goes to Daniel Frimpter, Anthony Barbosa, and James Scalise, from our Bylaws Committee, and Josh Elliott from our Election Committee, for reviewing and approving the additional language before presenting it to the members.
A copy of the language has been sent to CWA District 6 for final approval and those changes will go into effect on Saturday, November 8, 2025. To view the amended Bylaws, you can click on this link.
