Apple retail workers at the Penn Square Mall store in Oklahoma City voted overwhelmingly to join CWA on Friday, becoming the second group of Apple retail workers to win union representation in the U.S. The workers include Apple salespeople, genius admins, technicians, creatives, and operations specialists.
"I was on the organizing committee which just won the second Apple election in the U.S. My dad is a proud member of IUE-CWA battling for a fair contract right now with General Electric (GE) in Oklahoma and my mom was a proud union member too. Solidarity with Apple and GE workers everywhere. One union one fight," said Laurel Agee, a member of the Apple Retail Workers/CWA. CWA District 6 members are excited to welcome their newest members at Apple, who will be members of CWA Local 6016 in Oklahoma City.
