We have been informed by CWA District 6 Vice President Derrick Osobase that the members of CWA District 6 have voted to approve a strike by over 93%. Please read the message sent to Local Presidents this afternoon.
We want to thank each of you for your hard work and dedication in ensuring that every member had the opportunity to make their voice heard in this critical strike authorization vote. Your leadership and mobilization efforts have been instrumental in demonstrating our collective strength as we continue to fight for a fair contract.
These numbers send a clear and powerful message to AT&T SW. District 6 members stand united and ready to take action if necessary! Our bargaining team now carries this mandate to the table, backed by the strength of our membership.
While a strike is always a last resort, this overwhelming show of solidarity reinforces our resolve to demand the fair wages, benefits, and job security that our members deserve. Now, more than ever, we must stay engaged, mobilized, and prepared for the next steps in this fight.
Procedurally, this vote does not mean we automatically go on strike. The CWA Executive Board must first vote to authorize a strike, and then our National President would determine and set the official strike date.
Our strike authorization vote is a powerful tool that strengthens our bargaining position, showing AT&T SW that we are united and ready to take action if necessary.
Stay engaged and mobilized as we continue this fight for a fair contract!
Again, thank you for your commitment to our members and to the fight ahead.
