Important Announcements
Update: Now that SBC has merged with AT&T and changed their name to at&t, there is a lot of confusion on information posted on this web site. Going forward with the new at&t's terminology, we will now be referring to pre-merger SBC employees as "Legacy-S" and the pre-merger AT&T employees as "Legacy-T"

CWA Local 4050/4090 2010 COPE Drive

As the new contracts were being passed out, we had a COPE drive where we were very successful in signing up close to 40 new COPE members with a few of those members receiving awards for their contributions. Sean Flemming received a CWA watch for his generous contribution, Stephan Graham received a CWA COPE hat, and Anthony Womack received a CWA COPE mug.

Tale of Two Countries Video

Canadian members of CWA talk about their country's health care system and how it compares with the costly system in the United States in a video that the Canadian Media Guild produced for last year's CWA convention in Toronto.

In the video and in other interviews, Canadians indicate they don't understand why Americans cling to a staggeringly expensive system that leaves so many people without health care.

For more information, and to find out how you can make a difference, visit www.healthcarevoices.org/canada. The Health Care Voices website features hundreds of stories, ideas and concerns of CWA members and their families as part of the union's fight for health care reform in the United States.
