Postal Workers Rally to Save Saturday Service
On July 12, 2010 Jobs with Justice Activists and Leaders joined the America Postal Workers Union for an informational picket to save Saturday mail delivery. Congress is currently considering whether to eliminate Saturday service and only delivery mail 5 days a week.
Reducing service would weaken the United States Postal Service’s ability to serve every American at an inexpensive, uniform rate, and could eventually lead to privatization. Millions of Americans could no longer rely on Saturday delivery to receive prescriptions, checks, or other important mail and outside couriers could step in and require anyone that needed something delivered on a Saturday to be charged more.
