Last Friday, in a tremendous victory, workers at Verizon Wireless
stores in Everett and Lynnwood, Wash., won their union election. The
workers, who have been organizing for months, remained united in their
efforts to form a union even in the face of aggressive anti-union
tactics from the company.
Workers and supporters held a tailgate outside of the Verizon Wireless
store in Everett to watch and celebrate the official National Labor
Relations Board vote count. After the tailgate, the workers met
privately with Starbucks workers at a nearby store who recently formed
a union and served as an inspiration for the Verizon workers to
organize.
The workers now aim to create an organizing wave inside the company
that can sweep across the country. They hope to inspire other Verizon
Wireless workers to stand up, be brave, and fight for the union they
deserve.
