    December 9, 2019 Mr. Paul Wiedefeld General Manager and Chief Executive Officer Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority 600 Fifth Street, N.W. Washington D.C. 20001 Mr. Paul Smedberg Chairman Board of Directors Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority 600 Fifth Street, N.W. Washington D.C. 20001 Dear Mr. Wiedefeld and Mr. Smedberg: On behalf of the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO (TTD), I urge you to take immediate steps to ensure that drivers and other workers currently employed at the Cinder Bed Road Metrobus facility and at Fairfax Connector receive a fair and just contract with comparable pay and benefits to those enjoyed by WMATA employees. As you know, 120 Metrobus operators represented by ATU Local 689 have been on strike since October 24th — 50 days on the picket line. More than 600 members of ATU Local 1764 have just returned to work last night after being forced to strike over unfair labor practices deployed by Metro contractor Transdev. As the General Manager and Board Chairman of WMATA, it is your responsibility to ensure that services provided to WMATA customers are reliable, and that workers are afforded the highest level of respect and dignity on the job. Today, this is simply not happening. The ongoing strike at Cinder Bed Road and the failure to resolve the labor dispute at Fairfax Connector is directly linked to WMATA’s decision to contract out these operations to Transdev. In fact, the company’s business model in Northern Virginia is premised on imposing a below- market compensation package at both Cinder Bed Road and Fairfax Connector.
