Members of CWA Local 1298 join unfair labor practice strike.

Across California and Nevada, CWA members at AT&T West were off the job for two days this week in an unfair labor practice strike.

So far, the National Labor Relations Board has issued a complaint against AT&T West in response to two unfair labor practice charges filed, and is reviewing several other charges.

"Contract negotiations are never easy, but when AT&T violates the law, the process really can't work," said CWA District 9 Vice President Jim Weitkamp. CWA represents about 18,000 AT&T West workers.

About 3,200 members of CWA Local 1298 in Connecticut who work at AT&T East also engaged in a two-day unfair labor practice strike.
