Communication Workers of America

The Communication Workers of America (CWA) is a labor union representing workers in the telecommunications, media, and other sectors. Founded in 1938, the CWA emerged from the need for workers in the communications industry to have a collective voice and better working conditions. Over the decades, the union has expanded its reach to include workers in various fields, advocating for fair wages, job security, and improved labor standards. The CWA has played a significant role in labor movements, pushing for policies that benefit workers and their families, including healthcare, retirement security, and workplace rights.
