CWA attempts at the bargaining table to get better wages, working conditions and terms of employment for our members. But again and again, we see advances made at the bargaining table can be lost through action by Congress or state legislature. Every day Congress and state legislatures across the country make decisions that affect us-regarding telecommunications policy, taxes, social security, safety and health, the budget, pensions, our children's schools.

Union members know that working families have the right to be heard in the American political process. Without their voice, there would be no employer-provided health care, no minimum wage, no overtime pay, no job safety protections, and no retirement or job security.

That is why it is important for CWA members to get involved at every level of our union in the democratic process. We cannot be satisfied until every mem­ber exercises all the rights available to them to register, to meet and get to know the candidates personally, to do volunteer work in their campaigns, and to vote.

We must help elect candidates to office that represents the concerns of CWA members and workers in general. And most impor­tant of all, we must encourage our members to register and vote. You can help by participating in Phone banking one or two evenings a week. Anyone can do it, a script and plenty of guidance is provided.

Please call the union hall at 248-9408 to volunteer!
