FIGHTING FOR ECONOMIC JUSTICE & DEMOCRACY

Yvonne,

On October 18, CWAers will gather at events across the country to make it clear to the Trump administration that the power belongs to the people. 

In America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos and corruption.

Our jobs and our freedom to bargain contracts are under attack. Billionaires who have bought and bribed their way to power in Washington are working to dismantle our collective bargaining agreements and gut laws that protect our safety at work and workers’ ability to form unions.

The Trump administration has already shredded the union contracts of more than 1 million federal workers. They have left 17 million people without health care coverage and driven up insurance costs for all of us. They are deploying federal troops to intimidate peaceful protestors.

Their policies are designed to take power from the people and transfer trillions of dollars from programs that benefit working people, retirees, and children into tax cuts for the super-rich and more avenues for corporations to exploit workers.

This is not what we want. This is not what the majority of Americans want.

We want better, cheaper healthcare. We want to improve Social Security and Medicare so they will be there when we are ready to retire. We want to fix our tax system so that the obscenely rich pay what they should, and corporations aren’t rewarded for sending jobs overseas. We want to be free to join unions and bargain for the wages and benefits that we deserve.

Our unity is powerful. When our bosses try to act like kings, when they try to bully and berate us into accepting less so that they can have more, do we back down? No! We stand up.

On October 18, millions of working people will stand together to show that we will not be intimidated. Join other CWA members and retirees on October 18. Find an event in your area.

In unity,

Curtis Hierro

CWA National Political Field Director
