Update on CWA, IBEW and Verizon Early Bargaining

, ,

Our current collective bargaining agreement with Verizon is set to expire Saturday August 1st, 2026. The IBEW System Council T6 along with IBEW Local 2213, IBEW Local 827 and CWA Districts 1 and 2-13 have agreed to meet with Verizon for a limited amount of time in January to explore the possibility of a contract extension. The IBEW and CWA remain focused on our members priorities, and will provide an update on these discussions as soon as one is available. While we hope these talks prove productive, it is imperative that we continue to prepare for contract expiration by mobilizing and showing our solidarity.

Message from Business Manager Craig Fields

,

Message from Business Manager Craig Fields:

A rumor has been floated that Verizon wants to end retiree medical in
2026.  Despite the company’s cruel increases to retiree medical costs
planned for 2025, at no time did the company propose ending retiree
medical; not in 2026, or any other time.  There is no validity to this
rumor.

In Solidarity,
Craig Fields
