AT&T has reached a tentative agreement with workers in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Ohio. The company is currently in contract negotiations with the Communications Workers of America. The Midwest contract is just a small part of negotiations for 120,000 workers nationwide. It provides a 3 percent increase in wages for the next two years and a cost-of living adjustment on top of a 2.75 percent increase during the third year.
