CWA Legacy T Members Ratify New Contract With AT&T

Last week, CWA Telecommunications and Technologies (T&T) Vice President Lisa Bolton announced that Legacy T members with AT&T voted overwhelmingly for contract ratification. The new contract includes pay increases compounding over the life of the contract, improved healthcare options, bereavement leave to include distant relatives and close friends, and the creation of a joint committee to discuss potential impacts of artificial intelligence on members. This contract constitutes the largest wage increase this unit has received in four decades!

Members showed incredible solidarity and support for their bargaining team through mobilization actions. The team included CWA T&T Assistant to the Vice President and Bargaining Chair Brian Sawyer, CWA T&T Staff Representative Kara Hutchason, CWA Local 4252 President LaNell Piercy, CWA Local 13500 President Cindy Neumeyer, CWA Local 7250 Member Shari Wojtowicz, CWA Local 3250 President Barbara Tolbert, and CWA Local 7750 President Chris Roth.

CWA Legacy T members on the island of Puerto Rico also voted to ratify their contract with AT&T, locking in wage increases, significant healthcare advancements, and improved retirement benefits.

Congratulations to our Legacy T members on their new contracts!
