CWA Members and Retirees Turn Out to Elect Pro-Worker Leaders

Over the past few months, CWA members and retirees have been reaching out to union households to turn out the vote for pro-worker candidates. Through hard work and dedication, including making and sending almost 700,000 phone calls and text messages, CWA volunteers, organizers, supporters, and allies made the difference in several key U.S. Senate and House races.

• In Arizona, Ruben Gallego will become the state’s first Latino to serve in the U.S. Senate.
• In Maryland, Angela Alsobrooks will become the state’s first Black woman to serve in the U.S. Senate.
• In Wisconsin, Tammy Baldwin was re-elected.
• In Nevada, Jacky Rosen was re-elected.
• In Michigan, Elissa Slotkin won her election to the U.S. Senate.
• In Ohio, Marcy Kaptur and Emilia Sykes were re-elected to the U.S. House.
• In New York, Pat Ryan was re-elected to the U.S. House.
• In Pennsylvania, Chris Deluzio was re-elected to the U.S. House.

CWA President Claude Cummings Jr. expressed his gratitude to all CWA volunteers and allies who participated in this year’s election. “Union members and retirees did what we set out to do. We knocked doors, had conversations, and turned out union voters. CWA activists left it all on the field. I’m not just saying it; I saw it firsthand because I was out with them, too. I’m very proud of the work we did, and we will continue to fight for our members and retirees and all working families.”
