General Membership Meeting. Wednesday, September 26th at 5:30 pm @ the Yorktown Jewish Center.

This Labor Day, working people in every corner of the country have good reason to be proud. Our movement is on the rise. We are marching and striking and organizing. We are refusing to accept business as usual.  For decades, corporations have rigged the economy to work for the few at the expense of the many. They have tried to destroy our unions.

Active Members and Retirees of Verizon are leaving thousands of dollars on the table in unused HRA accounts.   In accordance with the 2016 collective bargaining agreement the Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) will expire on December 31, 2018 and any unused HRA balance as of December 31, 2018 will be forfeited.

The Summary of the Tentative Agreement between CWA & Verizon can be read from this page by clicking the PDF link below.  The Memo of Understanding between CWA & Verizon can be found in the downloads section in the Verizon 2018 folder.  CWA Local 1103 Members will vote on the Tentative Agreement on August 8th, 5:30 PM at the Teamsters Local 456 Union Hall Elmsford NY.

CWA, IBEW and Verizon have reached an agreement in principle to extend the collective bargaining agreements for a four-year period. The current agreements are set to expire on August 3, 2019. If finalized, the agreements will extend through August 5, 2023.

The nomination process for the office of Business Agent in CWA Local 1103 closed at 4:30 pm today.  There is only one nominee for the office and delegate to the CWA National Union Convention certified by the election committee.  Therefore the Election Committee has convened and cast one vote for the nominee and declares Chis Calabrese duly elected.

 It pays to belong to the Union with more bargained for benefits for Verizon members.

As you already know, CWA, IBEW and Verizon began meeting for a two-week period to attempt to negotiate the terms of a possible extension to the collective bargaining agreements that are set to expire in August 2019. We have agreed with the Company to extend the negotiations for a few additional days after the holiday.
