NPMHU MEMBERS GATHER IN DC FOR LEGISLATIVE CONFERENCE
The 119th Congress began with rhetoric and legislative proposals that would drastically impact Mail Handlers’ jobs and benefits. In order to combat these attacks, the National Postal Mail Handlers Union met in Washington, DC, to learn how to successfully educate members of Congress on issues directly impacting the Postal Service and Mail Handlers, and what elected officials can do to help.
The second day of the conference allowed Mail Handlers — now trained on how to effectively lobby — to meet with Members of Congress and their professional staff. Not only were NPMHU elected leaders and Mail Handlers able to share their views on pending issues throughout their day on the Hill, but relationships forged during the conference will prove helpful throughout the rest of the 119th Congress.
