Mail Handlers Deliver Union's Message to Capitol Hill
In May 2017, more than one hundred mail handlers from across the country gathered in Washington, DC to participate in the NPMHU’s biennial Legislative Conference for the 115thCongress. The two-day conference was filled with significant programs and activities.
The first day of the conference included a full training program, with a host of speakers and panel discussions highlighting both the substance of USPS issues now facing Congress and the methods used by successful lobbyists. The second day of the conference allowed all of the newly-trained mail handlers to meet with Members of Congress and their professional staff. The program highlighted the importance of the NPMHU’s representation on Capitol Hill, noting in particular that year-round legislative and political involvement must be part of the commitment made by all NPMHU activists.
