AT&T Mobility Sales Reps Join CWA in Alaska

Another 92 retail sales representatives who work across the state of Alaska have joined CWA through majority signup.

The Alaska workers' determination to get a union voice had support from CWA members at Mobility, Avaya and Qwest and from AFA-CWA members, said CWA District 7 Organizing Coordinator Al Kogler.

Despite frigid temperatures, a busy holiday season, and retail locations located hundreds of miles apart, a majority of workers signed up for CWA representation in just 45 days. They will be represented by CWA Local 7803 in Renton, Wash.

CWA represents about 42,000 AT&T Mobility workers.
