MissionWired Members Ratify First Contract and Win AI Protections

On Monday, members of CWA Local 2336 at MissionWired voted overwhelmingly in favor of ratifying their first union contract. MissionWired is a digital marketing and fundraising agency for non-profit organizations and Democratic campaigns based in Washington, D.C., with approximately 136 members in the unit.

"When we started organizing, we wanted a real voice in the decisions that shape our work and our lives. This contract gives us that voice to make sure the tools that we work with every day enhance our jobs, rather than replace them," said Data Engineer and CWA Local 2336 member Kelsey Evans. "We're super proud of what we were able to build into the workplace with a first contract."

The three-year contract guarantees annual wage increases and raised salary bands, protections against the misuse of artificial intelligence, remote work arrangements, and compensatory time for holiday and weekend work.

"After more than two years at the bargaining table, MissionWired workers secured real, enforceable protections on wages, on the use of AI in the workplace, and on the flexibility they need to do their best work," said CWA Local 2336 President Melissa Smith-Kupihea.
