"As we enter into the final year of the collective bargaining agreement with Verizon, it is becoming increasingly clear that we will be in for the fight of our lives come next August." That's the lead sentence in CWA 2108's August newsletter, as the local girds for the battle ahead. The current contract expires August 1, 2015. "The telecommunications industry is in the most significant phase of change any of us has ever seen," Local 2108 continues. Expecting a full frontal attack by Verizon -- which among other things "wants to expand the use of contractors" -- Local 2108 warns its members that "the time to prepare for battle is NOW!" photo courtesy CWA 2108
