Local labor and community groups will come together to show support for AT&T workers and their families fighting for a fair and equitable contract. The AT&T Corporation has continued to thrive during these difficult economic times making $36.6 million in profits per day. Yet this leading communications company is at a standstill with the workers during their contract talks especially over health care. American workers are stretched as never before. This is a classic case of how wages are dropping, health care costs are rising, and pensions are disappearing. However in the case of AT&T, employees are able to come to the table to negotiate these issues. This is why American workers need the Employee Free Choice Act. This current legislation would level the playing field for workers to gain a fair contract with their employer. Moreover, AT&T workers are now also facing threats of losing their healthcare and pension benefits all together.
