Emergency Legislative Alert!

Mon, 09/19/2011 - 9:56pm

On Wednesday, Sept 21, the Subcommittee on Federal Workforce, U.S. Postal Service and Labor Policy of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee will consider H.R. 2309, Rep. Issa’s bill that empowers a “solvency authority” to abrogate the collective bargaining agreement between USPS and the unions who represent postal workers.  Issa’s bill also requires the closure of thousands of post offices throughout the country – most in small towns and rural communities.

You Must Take Action Now!!

H.R. 2309 could cause the loss of over 120,000 jobs.
 

If your representative is a member of the Subcommittee on Federal Workforce, U.S. Postal Service and Labor Policy, it is imperative that they hear from you before the Committee meeting on Wednesday, Sept 21!  Please call their office and urge them to oppose H.R. 2309 during the markup.  An email message won’t do!  Please call, and then share with your co-workers and ask them to call too!  We need your help in the next 24 hours to defeat this attack on postal workers and their families.
