In our follow up meeting, we decided to focus our attention on an issue that most aren't even aware of ...the closing of up to 3700 post offices and over 100,000 being laid off. The 80% elimation of current at door delivery. Since Congress will be voting on this in a matter of days, we need people to take action to stop the destruction of our postal service.

On Tax Day Help Save the US Postal Service

 

Unlike Wall Street Corporations such as  General Electric or Exxon Mobil, the US Postal Service is Self-Supporting.

 

It does not take a dime from the U.S. taxpayer

 

The plutocrats in Congress are trying to destroy the US postal service and put us at the mercy of private Wall Street corporations like Federal Express and UPS.

 

The U.S. Postal Service is our most trusted government agency. It provides universal service to all Americans – rich or poor, urban or rural.

 

The postal service would be operating in surplus if not for a bill rammed through the Republican Congress in a voice vote in December 2006, and signed by President Bush.

 

The bill required $5 billion annual PRE-payments toward retiree health benefits for 75 years into the future – “something no other government or private corporation is required to do,” asserts Ralph Nader.

 

Tuesday, April 17th is Tax Day for the 99%

 

Join us in leafleting at the Williamstown Post Office and the Bellmawr Processing Center to bring  the attention  of  postal customers and the public at-large , to the drastic cuts that management is planning if Congress doesn’t act.

 

If you can’t make it to either of the locations at times stated , print the handout and leaflet at your local Post Office.
