There are almost 6000 of you out there, CWA Local 1298 members.  You enjoy the benefits of belonging to a UNION. You are the union.  Most of you did not have to fight to get the benefits of belonging. You came into a contract that has been in place for many years.  You have health benefits, pensions, wage scales, a 401k, a grievance procedure, you cannot be fired without just cause, and you have the support of your fellow workers and union officials.  Your job is safer than the average job on the street.  88 percent of workers in the US do not share your advantage.  Would they like to --- YES.  When asked 80 percent said they would be union if they could.

So what are the obstacles?

#1 Workers do not know how to go about getting a union.

#2 They are afraid.

We can help – YOU can help.

You know someone who needs a union.  Every one of you knows someone. Tell them there is a way for them to gain a voice on the job.  Ask them for their contact information and get it to the organizing department at the Local.  Don’t put it off – call today.  203-288-5271 or 860-392-9106.  We can talk to them and explore their options.  Remember – not only telephone workers can join CWA.  Nationwide we represent 700,000 workers in all types of jobs.  What’s in it for you?  The bigger the labor movement the more power we have.

And – to give you a little more incentive — if you give us a lead that becomes a contact, we will give you a $50.00 award.  Better yet, if you give us a lead that becomes an organizing campaign – you get $100.00. Enough for a little summer fun.  So get organizing.
