Our Work

    Communities and Postal Workers United (CPWU) grew out of a series of nationwide conference calls in the Spring of 2012 between postal workers from the American Postal Workers Union (APWU), the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), the National Postal Mail Handlers Union (NPMHU) and allies in the labor movement. Pulled together by Labor Notes, a national magazine and organizing center, the conference calls focused on the urgency of defending the postal service against ongoing job loss, service cuts and closures of mail processing plants and post offices.

   Some of us had unsuccessfully fought against the closure of the Frederick, Maryland, plant and watched with horror as first class mail sat in trailers for ten days. Others had organized 500 people to show up for a plant closure hearing in White River Junction, Vermont, and cheered as the plant was saved. We had organized a thousand-person Save the Postal Service march through downtown Portland, Oregon, and helped occupy a threatened post office in Harlem, New York. We wanted to combine our efforts.

   We applauded the national day of action organized by our unions on September 27th, 2011. We knew it was time for another unified national action. So we did – on Tax Day, April 17, 2012, with the theme “No Taxes Needed to Save America’s Postal Service”. We had organized events in a dozen cities and  won endorsement by the national APWU and the NPMHU. In early May we met to formally found CPWU at the Labor Notes conference in Chicago.

   By late June we had organized a Hunger Strike to Save the Postal Service in Washington, D.C. Ten of us -letter carriers, clerks, truck drivers, maintenance workers, mail handlers, seniors, veterans, Occupy activists, rank-and-file Union members & officers – walked the halls of Congress demanding that Congress stop starving the postal service, repeal the onerous health benefit pre-funding mandate, refund the pension surpluses, and protested at USPS headquarters demanding the Postmaster General to stop the cuts and closures. Generating major media coverage, our hunger strike had an impact on Congress and the USPS but more importantly it put the CPWU before the public and brought a new layer of activists into our midst.

   We have been active at APWU, NALC, and NPMHU conventions – hosting well-attended meetings about building local labor/community coalitions and pushing through resolutions to encourage such local formations. NALC and APWU also passed resolutions calling for a National March and Rally to Save the Postal Service.

 

 

Communities and Postal Workers United (CPWU) have organized and participated in many demonstrations and campaigns to preserve and expand the People's Postal Service.
