Save the Post Office: A Day of Action

Tuesday, August 25th, 6:00 p.m.
Join Occupy Kensington and the national movement to Save the Post Office on Tuesday, August 25th, at 6:00 p.m., at the Kensington Post Office.
This is a Day of Action to make three immediate demands to save our public postal service:
- Provide at least $25 billion in emergency COVID funding for the postal service.
- Stop the mail slowdown policies introduced by Postmaster General DeJoy and permanently reverse the delays.
- Ensure public confidence in voting-by-mail by providing all necessary resources for the timely delivery of election mail.
Bring signs that say, for example,
- #SaveThePostOffice
- We need $25B for the post office in emergency relief.
- Stop post office cutbacks.
Wear a mask and bring hand sanitizer. Keep your mask on, maintain social
distance, and sanitize your hands, as needed, to protect each other.
US Mail Not for Sale is a worker-led campaign that brings together labor unions, elected officials, member organizations of A Grand Alliance to Save Our Public Postal Service, community supporters, and the public to fight plans to sell the public Postal Service to the highest bidder.
