*Sign the Petition Today!*<http://act.aflcio.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&c=prumPRlNL7qeCKnZP2GypTz3Elw8Tem9> http://www.cwa-union.org/stopverizongreed<http://act.aflcio.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&c=%2BFAU2Ut42QFBLU%2FcDABHlzz3Elw8Tem9> 45,000 Verizon workers are now on strike to stop the attack on the middle class. The reason? Despite record profits, Verizon is refusing to bargain and is demanding that its workers add to those profits from their own pockets. In the last four years alone, Verizon made more $19.5 billion in profits and compensated their top five executives more than a quarter of a billion dollars. But apparently that’s not enough. Now they’re refusing to bargain. Starting on June 22 Verizon pushed proposals that would let them outsource more jobs, including overseas, slash sick days, eliminate benefits for workers who get hurt on the job, and cut the healthcare benefits they promised retirees. And they haven’t budged. That’s why 45,000 CWA and IBEW members walked out on Sunday August 7th to force Verizon to abandon its Wisconsin-style tactics and come to the bargaining table and negotiate. America has had enough of corporate greed. Now is the time for Verizon to do the right thing, and come to the bargaining table in good faith—instead of trying to kill the American dream for 45,000 middle-class workers. Send a letter now to tell Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam and tell him to stop Verizon’s attack on the middle class and share his company’s successes with those who made it possible.
