We proudly endorse Claude Cummings Jr as the next Communications Workers of America President. As CWA District 6 Vice President Claude has done amazing work to help all the sectors in his district. Throughout his time as D6 VP, he has consistently provided essentials necessary to build power for labor. Claude has consistently shown up for legislative fights not only for MSWU through lobby day and political outreach for numerous attacks on the Public Sector Unions, he also showed up and made sure that legislators knew we would not stand for Right To Work in MO in 2018. Claude has made great strides in making sure the public sector fights and issues are not just for the public sector. In fact, we have consistently seen him encourage work across the sectors because if one of us has a fight, then all of us have a fight. Claude has successfully navigated specific fights while keeping the membership engaged in big picture issues at the same time. It is a skill that can be difficult to master, yet Claude does it with ease. Claude is a leader that believes in the CWA triangle and helps the membership understand when they are all put together we are a stronger, more powerful union.
