Tearing Down the Wall
We have heard from VzB techs in Boston, Charlton, MA, Rhode Island, Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Rockland County, NY. In each area, VzB techs have stood up publicly to support their union. In each area, VzB techs have demanded the right to join with their unionized brothers and sisters in IBEW and CWA.
Westchester County, NY is now stepping up to the plate. Here is a great video of VzB tech Adam Traina at a CWA Local 1103 Membership Meeting. As the contract with the 80,000 or so Verizon workers expires on Aug 2nd, we think the company is getting the message loud and clear that the days when some in this company have good union benefits while others are treated as second class citizens needs to end.
Listen in as Adam tells it like it is. Watch how the 1103 members respond to Adam's message that the VzB techs want to help Tear Down the Wall that artificially separates VZ and VZB techs.
Pass this along to those who are not yet In the Loop!
