Virtual Rally to Support Striking Call Center Workers 11-1-23


From email:

Hello All!

We are holding a virtual rally tomorrow night to support call center workers at Maximus, a giant federal contractor, are going on strike next week. These workers handle Medicare and Affordable Care Act calls and have been fighting for better pay, working conditions and trying to form a union for years. While they've won some pay increases and lowered their healthcare deductible, Maximus’ anti-union campaign and ongoing instances of interference with their right to organize has made it difficult to win the family-sustaining jobs they -- and their communities -- need.

We want to show them that the whole labor movement has their backs.

The rally is at 8 pm ET and the RSVP form is at https://cwa.org/maximusrally

Please help us spread the word!

As someone who is newly retired, I have been amazed at the care and attention paid by those on the other end of the phone when I have questions about Medicare.
