CWA members at AT&T Internet in Districts 3, 4, 6 and 9 voted overwhelmingly for strike authorization if a fair contract can't be reached.
The current contract expires July 17. Negotiations got underway June 21 in Dallas; the contract covers nearly 5,400 workers.
Key issues include wages, protecting and improving benefits, job security, protections against subcontracting, improved scheduling and time off.
Across the districts, members have been mobilizing, wearing bandages on health care action days and standing up for a fair contract.
