CWA workers in Midwest ratify AT&T union contract

Midwestern Communications Workers of America ratified a three-year union contract with AT&T’s wireline business, the carrier announced today. The Associated Press also is reporting that CWA union members in Nevada and California have reached a tentative deal with AT&T.
AT&T’s contract with four CWA regional groups expired in April and the two groups have been working to reach a new deal since. The Midwest deal covers 18,500 employees in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin.
