A Democracy Movement to Shake the Country

Share This Article:

CWA President Larry Cohen this week called for a new democracymovement in America to reclaim for workers and the general public power

that has been taken from them in poorly negotiated trade deals.

Cohen made his remarks as the featured speaker at a conference called bythe Economic Policy Institute to find solutions to jumpstart Americans'stagnant wages. He also introduced U.S. Labor Secretary Thomas E. Perez,who gave the keynote speech at the program, which was attended by EPIeconomists and activists working to raise wages for workers nationwide.

"It is not going to matter one bit what our policy ideas are if we don't build ademocracy movement in this country," he said. "We've got a great policyagenda. We have no power to enact it. It isn't just that working people cannotorganize on the job, it is that this democracy is literally in the trash can. Butwe keep pretending that it is not, that the next election is going to reinvent it."

EPI issued a report showing wage growth for most American workers hasbeen stagnant for the past three-and-half decades.

Cohen zeroed in on the continuing erosion of bargaining rights for U.S.workers even as workers in some places such as Brazil have made greatstrides as the main reason for the stagnation and proposed attacking theproblem by changing the political culture in the country.

Workers in many European nations, he said, have universal collectivebargaining rights. Telecommunications workers in Germany, for instance,have bargained contracts that increased wages to 3% above inflation. Andthat's not counting that U.S. workers have to pay for health care. Germanworkers don't.

He pointed out that $7 billion was spent in the campaign for federal offices in2012, a 500% increase in 12 years; and that in the United States Senate, ittakes at least 60 votes to get anything done. And there's the erosion in votingrights, which he says is worse than when the Voting Rights Act was passed in1965. Meanwhile, 20 million immigrants, half of whom have Green Cards, aredenied a path to citizenship and could not participate fully in our nation'seconomic life. Moneyed interests have undue sway over U.S. trade policies,negotiating deals that favor multinational corporations and strip power fromworkers.

CWA is one of the founding organizations of the Democracy Initiative that isdetermined to overcome the barriers to democracy by organizing aroundthese three goals: getting big money out of politics, voting rights andreforming the broken Senate rules.

"So, it's not hopeless," Cohen says. "It's just the hardest it's ever been."

Multinational corporations won't raise wages and won't keep jobs in America,

no matter how much profit they make, if they don't have to, he said.

"The CEO of one of these companies said to me, 'it's like gravity. We aretaking the job to the lowest cost place we can produce it unless there's policyto stop us,'" Cohen said. "We are not going to have policy to stop it, whether

it's trade policy or labor policy, unless we have a mass movement with apolitical dimension and take the money out of politics so we don't have themost expensive and the worst elections in the world."

After World War II, 10 million Americans belonged to unions. That numberwould grow to three times that size as America created a middle class thatwas the envy of the world. And the reasons for the growth, Cohen said,weren't just workers organizing or just political change or unprecedentedlevels of community organizing.

"We so often get confused between the policy that's in our head why didn't

somebody come up with this idea? and the democracy movement that weneed to get adopted."

New CWA App Builds Crowd for Iowa TPP Teach-In

CWAers built a great crowd for a TPP "teach-in" in Des Moines, Iowa, usingthe new CWA app. About 65 people joined the discussion that focused onhow to get the word out about just how bad TPP is for workers, jobs andcommunities.

Steve Abbott, president of the CWA Iowa Council, said that participantscommitted to contacting their members of Congress and writing letters to theeditor to their local newspapers, to spread the word.

Abbott and other Iowa CWAers will hold more TPP teach-ins and events atthe Iowa AFL-CIO convention and in other locations.

Also joining the event were community partners from Iowa Citizens forCommunity Improvement and other allies; following the teach-in they talkedstrategy for building the broad coalition of grassroots activists needed to winsocial change.

Inside the meeting, Amber Diaz, a TU member and former T-Mobileemployee from Albuquerque, N.M., called on Deutsche Telekom CEOTimotheus Httges to justify the $29 million salary paid last year to T-MobileUS CEO John Legere, while thousands of T-Mobile workers are paid wagesthat are so low that they qualify for government assistance, including foodstamps and other aid. DT is the parent company of T-Mobile US.

Diaz was fired for her union activities by T-Mobile, despite having worked foreight years as a top producer. A National Labor Relations Board hearingabout her illegal firing and other illegal actions by T-Mobile will begin in

September.

"Mr. Httges, is 'reasonable remuneration' a wage so low a worker needsgovernment assistance? Ultimately, taxpayers are subsidizing the company,and that fact can hurt T-Mobile's image. Will you commit to ending povertywages at T-Mobile? We at T-Mobile would love to see a contract. Mr. Legerehas a contract. Shouldn't workers also have contracts," she asked.

CWA and TU activists, students and other supporters leaflet T-Mobileshareholders outside the company's annual meeting in Bellevue, Wash.

Shareholders also voted on a proposal urging the T-Mobile Board of Directors

to disclose how it assesses human rights risks in its operations and supplychain. The proposal was presented by The Marco Consulting Group, aChicago-based registered investment adviser, and the AFL-CIO's Office onInvestment. It had the support of Institutional Shareholder Services, theleading proxy advisory firm.

The proposal was based on the United Nations' Guiding Principles onBusiness and Human Rights, which are endorsed by T-Mobile parent DT, butDT, which owns 67 percent of T-Mobile US, refused to support the proposal.

The proposal calls on T-Mobile to report on human rights risks in its own

operations and in its supply chain. That would include the recentconsolidation of complaints by the NLRB general counsel that T-Mobileviolated workers' rights under federal labor law. Walmart is the only otherU.S. employer to have faced a consolidated complaint for its federal labor lawviolations.

Privatization Triggers Race to the Bottom

Share This Article:

Taxpayers are inadvertently funding the erosion of the middle class and theirlocal community services, as more state and local governments privatizeimportant public functions, according to a new report from In the PublicInterest.

The study, "Race to the Bottom: How Outsourcing Public Services RewardsCorporations and Punishes the Middle Class," found that outsourcing publicservices to for-profit and other private companies often resulted in lowerwages and reduced benefits that ultimately hurt the local economy. Itanalyzed case studies from around the country:

In New Jersey, after public schools outsourced food service jobs,companies like Aramark, Sodexo and Compass cut workers' wages by$4 to $6 an hour and wiped out many of their health insurancebenefits. Food service companies have among the highest levels ofemployees and their children enrolled in the New Jersey FamilyCareprogram, the state's Medicaid program driving up poverty and likelycosting taxpayers far more than any savings realized fromprivatization.

In Michigan, a state-run veterans home outsourced nursing assistantpositions, which resulted in wages dropping from a range of $15 to $20an hour with health benefits to $8.50 an hour without benefits. Studiesshow the cuts resulted in higher turnover among the outsourcednursing assistants and, ultimately, lower levels of reliability and quality

of care for veterans.

In Milwaukee, the county outsourced nearly 90 custodial jobs toMidAmerican Building Services, a for-profit company that slashedcompensation to levels so low that many county workers with familiescould no longer afford to work there. One custodian skipped doctorvisits to save money and had to dip into her son's college fund to payfor daily necessities. Another custodian was forced to cut back ontreatments needed by his disabled son due to the loss of income.

"It is important research that connects how privatization has far-reaching,negative effects in the community well beyond the contract itself," said BrooksSunkett, vice president of CWA's Public, Health Care, and Education WorkersSector.

The report also includes several policy recommendations for reversing thisdangerous trend, including requiring contractors to pay a living wage and

mandating that governments conduct a social and economic impact analysisbefore outsourcing.

CWA helped support the research and shape the contents of the report. Readit here.

BlueGreen Alliance Proposed EPA Limits are Starting Point on Climate

Change, Keeping Good Jobs

Share This Article:

This week, the Environmental Protection Agency proposed the first-ever limitson carbon dioxide emissions from existing power plants. It's a step forward,enabling states to develop their own plans for compliance that take intoaccount both cleaner energy and good jobs. The EPA plan calls for a 30percent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from 2005 levels by 2030;

states will have until June 2018 to submit a plan.

The goal is to make sure the U.S. is ready for the impact of climate changeon jobs, communities and our infrastructure.

Members of the BlueGreen Alliance, a national partnership of unions andenvironmental groups working for good, sustainable jobs along with a cleanand green economy and environment, applauded the EPA proposal.

"Climate disruption is the greatest challenge facing our generation," saidMichael Brune, Sierra Club Executive Director, and along with CWA

President Larry Cohen, a founding member of the Democracy Initiative."Today, the president made good on his promise to American families that hisadministration would tackle the climate crisis, and clean up and modernizethe way we power our country."

"This action by the Obama administration is a starting point in a much-neededeffort to address both climate change and the need to keep and create good

jobs in our communities. Because we have a U.S. Senate that doesn'tfunction, many opportunities for positive change in our nation, whether inrestoring workers' rights or supporting clean energy initiatives, have beenlost. As we build a movement of progressive activists who are committed to

real change on these and other critical issues, we appreciate the President'saction to limit carbon pollution while encouraging more efficient energysources," Cohen said.

BlueGreen Alliance partners support the proposed rule as a means toaddress the impact of climate change, to increase economic opportunity forworkers and communities, and to better protect and improve public health.They also called for a final standard that responsibly reduces carbon pollution
