Keep California Jobs in California




Tell Verizon: Keep California Jobs in California

Tell Verizon that it's a slap in the face.


Verizon makes a huge percentage of its profits from California consumers. But it continues to send our jobs out of state, and even out of the country. Verizon call center jobs are already in the Philippines. Last month our bargaining team caught Verizon sending our jobs to Tijuana.

California consumers have made it possible for Verizon to keep its fat cat executives fat. Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg's salary is $18.6 million, and the salary of the other five top executives totals $58.9 million. Verizon made $3.65 billion in profits last year.

Verizon can afford to help lead California out of the recession. And it can afford to give its 5,500 California employees a fair contract--without shifting more of the health care burden to workers.

Send Verizon a message by asking your legislators to demand answers from Verizon.

Keep California jobs in California!
