Representative Costa, Senator Cannella and Assemblymember Gray Fight to Stop AT&T Call Center Closure

Merced, CA- Yesterday, Congressman Jim Costa (D-Fresno) was joined by State Senator Anthony Cannella (R-Ceres) and State Assemblymember Adam Gray (D-Merced) in sending a letter to AT&T Assistant Vice President Jack Wright urging him to reconsider closing the company’s call centers at the Castle Commerce Center in Atwater.

“For the second time, I have urged AT&T Assistant Vice President, Jack Wright, to reverse the decision to close the two call centers in Atwater. The positions at the AT&T call centers represent more than jobs; they are economic lifelines for the community,” said Rep. Costa. “At a minimum, AT&T should keep the call centers open through the end of the calendar year so that employees have the necessary time to plan for their future and the future of their families.”......................................>>>>more
