Everyone, All Postal Employees are now under the very real threat of Privatization. The Trump Administration under Elon Musk now has access to "assist" Postmaster DeJoy in the ongoing efforts to make the Institution more efficient.

Your Job is on the Line!

The Postal Service is facing one of the most serious threats in our history. Reports indicate that the Trump administration is preparing an illegal and hostile takeover of the USPS, threatening the stability of our jobs, our workplaces, and the public service we proudly provide.

Save the PO

We are going to need UNITY and strength to fight the illegal attacks not just on Postal Workers but on our country! Get to the rallys, call and write to your legislators. Let's do whatever it takes to stand up and fight back.
