Organizing Update

Another Cricket Unit Part of the CWA Family

All four Cricket technicians in upstate New York have signed cards to join CWA, and the AAA certified the results today. Organizer Mary Clinton worked on this campaign, as did Local 1122 EVP John Mudie.

Cricket, a prepaid wireless provider with 1,000 workers at 170 locations, merged with AT&T Mobility; meaning CWA's organizing rights agreement with Mobility now applies to Cricket workers nationwide. Starting at the beginning of this month, a majority of Cricket mobile retail workers in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Arkansas have joined CWA.
