DESCRIPTION:4/7 AT&T Workers Rally At SF AT&T Park\n\nMobilize for Justice!\nTuesday, 
 April 7, 2009\nOpening Day @ AT&T Park\nGather @ 2nd & Folsom (611 
 Folsom)\n10:30AM March for Justice to the Park\n \nThe Communications 
 Workers of America encourage you to join us in a March for Justice. We’ll 
 take our message to AT&T on Opening Day @ AT&T Park. Our Union Contracts 
 expired on April 4 and we’re currently working without a Contract. AT&T 
 is following an extremely greedy, mean-spirited policy at the Bargaining 
 table. It’s a reflection of how they relate to the people of California 
 in general. While they do ‘Spread the Wealth Around,’ (among the 
 lobbyists), they’ve been eliminating jobs while ignoring Safety concerns 
 for the people. Now they want to roll back the hand of time on Health Care. 
 AT&T wants to shift the cost of Health Care onto us rather than joining 
 with us to create Health Care reform in this country, extending coverage to 
 the millions of uninsured and underinsured working families.\n \nRefusing 
 to even Bargain concerning Health Care of Retirees - the folks that built 
 the Phone Company - management shows their real cards. $12.9 Billion in 
 profit during the past year alone is what we’ve contributed. We’ve 
 built this corporation into an extremely successful company. Among the most 
 profitable corporations in the world, management needs to rethink their 
 priorities. We refuse to accept that $12.9 Billion profit isn’t enough. 
 In fact, management needs to share some of the wealth that we’ve 
 produced. We didn’t work this hard, doing this good of a job to simply 
 enrich the CEO. $50-60,000 per day for the CEO should be unheard of, yet 
 management seems to think this is OK and that retirees should figure out 
 how to pay for their health care.\n \nJoin us as we expose the real AT&T. 
 Management likes to put on expensive shows while they loot the people. Look 
 over here at the nice park we built, so that you don’t look over there 
 where we’ve eliminated jobs and ignored Safety concerns. Look over here 
 at the nice gift we have for you, but don’t look at how it got there. 
 They’re looting the people of California and now they want to take our 
 union to the tool shed. We’re not having it. Join us as we demand 
 fairness & justice. Share the Wealth – Don’t Cut Our Health!\n 
 \nWe’ll be having constant mobilization activities - increasing the heat 
 on AT&T management to bargain fairly. This corporation is not hurting. We 
 refuse to allow them to cynically use the economic crises to cry wolf, 
 acting as if they are hurting from the economic crises. It’s time to hold 
 these greedy corporations accountable. We’re simply asking for justice - 
 but we’ll accept nothing less!\n \n \nSome of our mobilization activities 
 on video;\n \nPicket Party - This is fun. Be careful.\n
