Well, Where to Begin?
Postmaster DeJoy’s resigning? HR70/SR147 Anti-privatization of the postal service?HR1065/SR463
Protect Our Letter Carriers Act? HR1522 Federal Retirement Fairness Act? These are just a few issues we are currently “dealing” with as postal employees. A major issue for me personally is only ONE Kentucky Congressman has pledged his support for any of the current bills pertaining to the postal service; Representative Morgan McGarvey from District 3. That’s it. We ALL need to reach out not only to our State Representatives and our two Senators but also to the main Congressional Hotline. They represent us and we need to make them aware of our issues. I have requested a face-to-face meeting with Representative Brett Guthrie. Hopefully his office will be able to make time in his schedule to discuss the current bills and his lack of support for not a single one of them.

What can you do? You can call, write letters or email your representatives and senators. Their contact information can be found on the KYRLCA website under Appointed Positions, PAC. You can also call the Congressional Hotline at 202-224-3121. Let’s blow up their inboxes and voicemails and let them know we want their support on these important issues! The postal service is the second largest employer in the United States. Our legislators should be listening to our concerns and supporting us by signing on to co-sponsor the above-mentioned bills!
Who is getting excited for our State Convention in Erlanger? We already have some really cool items going into the PAC auction. If you have anything you would like to donate, please feel free to reach out to me. I cannot wait to see what each district comes up with for their centerpieces this year as well. That was so much fun last year. I think everyone involved enjoyed the friendly competition. Hope to see you in Erlanger!
