\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\nRSVP Link: https:\/\/forms.office.com\/g\/pC0ySDFnbj<\/p>\n

April 5th<\/strong>: Stay tuned for local events as part of the National Hands Off! actions
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

The 295,000 active and retired members of the National Association of Letter Carriers have
\na message to deliver: Hands off the Postal Service.<\/p>\n

ANY EFFORT TO PRIVATIZE OR RESTRUCTURE USPS IS A DIRECT THREAT TO<\/strong>:
\n640,000 postal employees, including 200,000 city letter carriers represented by NALC
\nThe universal service every American relies on
\nMillions of households and businesses, especially in rural America<\/p>\n

THE CONSEQUENCES WOULD BE DEVASTATING<\/strong>:
\nJeopardizing the jobs of the 7.9 million people employed by the $1.92 trillion mailing
\nindustry
\nReducing services to 51.5 million households and businesses in rural communities,
\nwhere private carriers do not deliver
\nRaising shipping costs and driving inflation higher for businesses and consumers<\/p>\n

SUCH PROPOSALS ARE ILLEGAL AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL<\/strong>:
\nThe Postal Service, older than our nation itself, is enshrined in the Constitution.
\nThe Constitution gives Congress, not the president, a key role in setting postal policy.
\nMandated by federal law, USPS has been an independent, self-sufficient agency for 55
\nyears.<\/p>\n

Why we\u2019re fighting<\/strong>:
\nTo protect the jobs of 640,000 USPS employees, including 73,000 veterans
\nTo uphold our universal service obligation, delivering 376 million pieces of mail and
\npackages to nearly 169 million delivery points nationwide
\nTo safeguard USPS, one of the nation\u2019s most trusted public agencies
\nTo oppose privatization efforts or reorganizational mandates that would threaten the
\nPostal Service and our jobs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
