DESCRIPTION:9/10/25 Report Back On 2025 CWA & NG Pittsburgh Conventions & The Fight 
 Against Fascism & For A Free Palestine\n\nOn August 9, 10, 11th and 12, 
 thousands of CWA and NewsGuild members met in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for 
 their national conventions.\n\nCWA & NewsGuild members like all other 
 unions face an existential attack on their union rights and growing attacks 
 on our immigrant members and families, growing racist attacks  and flagrant 
 destruction of public services, public education and public healthcare. 
 These issues were discussed and debated at the 
 convention.\n\nUnfortunately, resolutions to stop the US supported genocide 
 in Gaza and to break relations with the Histadrut were opposed by the 
 resolutions committee and the national leadership.\n\nThe NewsGuild passed 
 a resolution for Single Payer healthcare but it as well was opposed by the 
 national leadership of the CWA which opposed it even coming to the 
 floor.\n\nThe issue of fascism, marital law  and a dictatorship did come up 
 in discussion but there was no plan on how the CWA should fight this 
 growing imminent threat.\n\nJoin a discussion with rank and file CWA 
 members on Wednesday September 10, 2025 at 6PM PST/8PM CST 9PM 
 EST\n\nSponsored by WorkWeek, UPTE Members For Palestine, CWA Members For 
 Palestine & Workers Power,
