Verizon has asked for the most sweeping rollback of union contract provisions ever. Verizon is actively trying to send good, middle class jobs to other countries yet, it has paid its top five executives 258 million dollars since 2007. Send a message to Verizon that it cannot destroy 45,000 middle class jobs and expect Americans to keep giving it business.
CWA & IBEW Verizon workers from up & down the East Coast gathered outside Verizon's NYC headquarters by the thousands this week to tell Verizon that they weren't willing to let Verizon bust their unions and slash their pay while making billions in profit. See video of the rally below.
