In a show of solidarity, unionized AT&T workers in South Florida went on strike on Monday, joining tens of thousands of workers across multiple states in the Southeast. This strike was prompted by ongoing negotiations for a new union contract and the alleged "unfair labor practices" by the company’s management. The strike was captured by Sky 10 at the AT&T building in the Kendale Lakes area of southwest Miami-Dade.

Members of the Communications Workers of America (CWA) have been vocal about their dissatisfaction with AT&T's management, citing what they claim are unfair labor practices. They have expressed their grievances by participating in this strike, in hopes of bringing attention to their cause and pushing for more favorable conditions.

AT&T, however, has refuted these claims, denying any violations of labor laws and expressing a desire to negotiate a new contract that benefits its hard-working employees. In a statement released over the weekend, the company stated, "We have been engaged in substantive bargaining since day one and are eager to reach an agreement that benefits our hard-working employees."

The strike by AT&T workers highlights the ongoing tensions between management and union workers, as negotiations continue for a fair and equitable union contract. The CWA is fighting for better wages, improved working conditions, and stronger job security for their members. With the strike taking place across multiple states in the Southeast, the scale and impact of this action cannot be underestimated.

It remains to be seen how long the strike will last and what impact it will have on AT&T's operations and services. Both parties will need to come to the bargaining table with an open mind and a willingness to find common ground for the benefit of all involved. As the negotiations progress, the hopes of the unionized AT&T workers in South Florida and their counterparts across the Southeast remain high for a fair and satisfactory resolution to their labor concerns.
