The practice symbolizes unity and strength within the union, demonstrating solidarity among members and highlighting their collective power to management. The color red is chosen to represent the sacrifices and struggles workers have endured to achieve fair and equal rights. Furthermore, wearing red on Thursdays serves as a solemn commemoration of Gerry Horgan, a CWA Chief Steward who tragically died during a 1989 Verizon strike after being hit by a car on a picket line. The document encourages all CWA members to participate by wearing red shirts, hats, or jackets, aiming to create a powerful visual display of union solidarity across all workplaces every Thursday.
