Bring Back Bianca
Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam
Bianca organized her coworkers at Verizon Wireless. Now the company has fired her.
In 2014, Bianca and her coworkers in Brooklyn, NY started a movement for their rights at work, which culminated on May 14, 2014 when workers at all six Brooklyn Verizon Wireless stores voted overwhelmingly to join the Communications Workers of America. Another retail store in Everett, Massachusetts quickly followed suit.
Bianca tore down management’s wall between unionized Verizon landline and mostly non-union Verizon Wireless - where, out of a workforce of 79,000, 155 workers are unionized. And for that, the company wanted Bianca gone.
Bianca and her co-workers are fighting for their first contract, alongside the 39,000 Wireline workers whose contract expired on August 1st. Despite $1 billion a month in profits, Verizon refuses to offer any raises, benefits or improvements to working conditions for the retail store workers.
We won’t let the company get away with this. Please sign the petition to save Bianca's job and support a fair contract at Verizon Wireless. *
