Unions say AT&T has informed them that the company will be laying off another 3,400 employees over the next few weeks.

For those playing along at home, that's 41,000 job cuts since Trump gave AT&T a $42 billion tax cut in 2017.
Oh, the death of #netneutrality consumer protections were also supposed to create jobs and result in massive network investment. In both cases the exact opposite happened.
Sorry, I know we're supposed to pretend none of this actually happened. MAGA!
The CWA email blast to the media includes this table that breaks down all of the AT&T layoffs since King Trump gave the company a $42 billion tax cut (and billions more in regulatory favors) in exchange for bupkis.
flashback to 2017, when AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson promised that the Trump tax cuts would create thousands of high paying ($70-80K) jobs.

Whoops! Guess not. And absolutely nobody in US government will hold AT&T accountable. Like, at all. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/atandt-ceo-says-theyll-invest-least-1-billion-create-7000-jobs-tax-reform-passes-200245187.html
AT&T CEO says they'll invest 'at least' $1 billion and create 7,000 jobs if tax reform passes

'A billion dollars is an easy number to commit to.'
