Why become a member of the Communications Workers of America
Aside from supporting your fellow workers in endeavors to continually better our working conditions and benefits, membership also provides individual advantages in a variety of areas:

Union Plus

You don't have to join Union Plus or Union Privilege; as a member or retiree of an AFL-CIO union, you and your family are automatically eligible for our benefits. Most AFL-CIO unions participate in most Union Plus benefits, but some international unions elect not to offer all the programs.
