Report Back on 2025 CWA & NG Conventions & the Fight Against Fascism for Palestine

9/10/25 Report Back On 2025 CWA & NG Pittsburgh Conventions & The Fight Against Fascism & For A Free Palestine

On August 9, 10, 11th and 12, thousands of CWA and NewsGuild members met in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for their national conventions.

CWA & 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.

Unfortunately, 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.

The 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.

The 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.

Join a discussion with rank and file CWA members on Wednesday September 10, 2025 at 6PM PST/8PM CST 9PM EST
