Since 1979, The Salvation Army’s Angel Tree program has helped to fulfill the Christmas wishes and needs of children up to 12 years old throughout Central Texas. Low-income families apply to the program starting in September and provide The Salvation Army with a Christmas wish list for each child that includes new toys or games, along with clothing and shoe sizes. Donors then can “adopt” each of these Angels and fill an Angel Tree bag with gifts chosen for each child. Gifts are then distributed to parents a week before Christmas.
This year, President Tony Thornburg, Secretary Treasurer Audry Hawkes, Vice President Sonia Lopez, and Chief Steward Janell Zuberbier, volunteered their time to help the Salvation Army warehouse sort through some of those bags ensuring that parents of children in need, had presents to give their kids this Christmas. See some of the pictures we took on Saturday, December 7th!


Dear Members,
You should receive an invitation in the mail regarding our Christmas Party on December 13th. We will have guests from American Income Life and NettWorth Financial attending as well.

Due to an appeal of the determination of the Election Committee to re-run the CORE Vice President election, the election is on hold until a decision is made by the Executive Board and the Membership. Our next Membership Meeting will be on Thursday, November 14th at 7:30pm.
After the election results from October 7th, a challenge to the election was made concerning a violation of campaign rules. The challenge was delivered in writing to the Chair of the Election Committee on October 7th. The Election Committee then conducted an investigation to the allegations made and determined that there was a violation of the rules. The remedy to this violation, as decided by the Election Committee, was to rerun the election for the office of Vice President for CORE.
We are in the process of choosing a date to count the new ballots and when decided, notifications will be mailed to our members’ addresses on file. A separate letter will be mailed that will include the ballots and instructions.
CWA has always been a strong advocate for candidates who support working people. If there is anything these last couple of months have proven, is that we need competent candidates in government who put the safety and concerns of working people first. Early voting starts Monday, October 21st and goes through Friday, November 1st. Polls will be open from 7am to 7pm. MAKE SURE TO HAVE A PLAN TO VOTE!. Election day and last day to vote will be on Tuesday, November 5th. Please make sure to have the appropriate I.D> and print out the list of approved candidates before you go since you are not allowed to have your phone out in the polling locations.
The following candidates have garnered our Union endorsement and this list has been compiled and provided to you by the CWA Local 6132 Legislative Committee.
