It is irrefutable that the union workers taking their dismay into the streets have affected Verizon's operations and other ventures. Also, the troubles that have affected Verizon are giving rise to other ventures strengthening its business presence such as AT&T.

According to Benzinga, AT&T Inc. disclosed that it invested nearly $1.5 billion in its Ohio wireless and wired networks during the year 2013-2015 and the company stated that these investments drove a wide range of upgrades to reliability, coverage, speed and overall performance for residents and businesses."

AT&T said that in 2015, it made over 680 wireless network upgrades in Ohio. The company indicated that it added new cell sites, increased capacity, as well as speeds to the current sites, and expanded the band of radio frequencies used on many towers, reports the same post.

Meanwhile, AT&T's Speaker of the Ohio House, Ciff Rosenberger, commented, "In order for Ohio to continue to thrive, it's imperative we have companies that invest through thoughtful innovation. AT&T is making on-going investments in its fast, reliable network. With this, our residents and businesses have the tools to compete and grow."

The company's President for Ohio region, Adam Grazybicki, said, "We're committed to providing our customers fast, reliable, highly secure connectivity. We want them to be able access the Internet at any moment, from almost any device and anywhere. Our continued investment in Ohio brings a host of new, innovative opportunities for residents and businesses."
