Supporting Our Members and Retirees in Texas Affected By Tragic Floods

Last weekend, flash floods along the Guadalupe River in Texas killed over 100 people and destroyed thousands of homes and businesses. Many CWA members, retirees, and their families have been affected by this tragedy.
In a message to CWA District 6 members, Vice President Derrick Osobase wrote, “We are deeply saddened by the loss of life, homes, and livelihoods that so many of our CWA members, families, friends, and neighbors have suffered. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with each of you and your families during this incredibly difficult time. Moments like these remind us how strong our union family truly is. We know that many of you have already stepped up to help those in need—offering shelter, donations, and support that demonstrate the power of solidarity.”
If you are a CWA member or retiree and your home, property, or livelihood has been impacted, you may qualify for disaster relief assistance.
