October 31, 2019



As part of this week's quarterly earnings report, AT&T revealed that it has cut employment by 5,950 jobs during the third quarter of 2019, bringing the total cuts at AT&T since the corporate tax cut went into effect in January 2018 to 33,778.



The company also announced a disturbing new three-year plan, committing to spend $30 billion on buying back its own stock to boost share prices. Instead of building toward the future by bringing next generation wireless and fiber broadband networks to all Americans, AT&T plans to use its massive profits to further enrich its largest investors.
