AT&T is planning to move almost 250 customer service jobs out of Sacramento, California. The loss of these jobs would be devastating to the local economy - the Sacramento area could lose at least $15 million in direct wages a year.
AT&T is a successful and profitable company, even in these troubled economic times. AT&T should be a leader in helping turn the economy around by providing good, middle class jobs in our local economy, not cutting jobs and contributing to an even worse financial situation for the Sacramento region.
Contact AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson today to ask that he keep customer service jobs in Sacramento. http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/attsacramento?rk=rdadqq6qJw4sE
AT&T should play fair and put people first. There is no business need to move jobs out of Sacramento. AT&T workers are highly-skilled and trained, and perform quality jobs that benefit AT&T customers. There's no reason for AT&T to hurt its employees. In fact, employees are a key element in AT&T's success, and AT&T should keep its commitments to them; doing so will not only help workers, but will also help our economy.
CWA Local 9421 has proposed a fair, logical counter-proposal to AT&T that will allow jobs to stay in Sacramento. Write to Randall Stephenson today to ask him to consider CWA's proposal and keep these jobs in Sacramento.
In Solidarity,
Jim Weitkamp, Vice President
CWA District 9
