CWA District 9/AT&T West Bargaining Bulletin #63 Thursday, June 11, 2009

The parties met today in extensive sub-committee sessions and explored, in detail, many of the most difficult issues facing us. We had some of the best discussions to date. Although no agreement has been reached yet, and there are still significant differences, progress has been made. District 9 Vice-President Jim Weitkamp has now joined us in the workroom.

Now is not the time to slack off. Pump it up! Create as much chaos as possible. It is your involvement that clearly tells the company that you demand a fair and just contract.

Your continued effort to make sure all your work is done safely and with 100% quality, along with your participation in mobilization events, is essential for continued movement at the bargaining table.

STRIKE STANDBY DAY 68!

IN UNITY,
