The 15-member Ballot Committee, chaired by Paul Roznowski of Branch 3126, Royal Oak, MI, has released the following statement:
Beginning on Dec. 9, active letter carriers eligible to vote in the contract ratification process were mailed a ballot to vote on the proposed 2023-2026 National Agreement between NALC and USPS. Mailing of ballots to the 185,894 eligible active letter carriers was completed on Dec. 16.
Due to delays in the Postal Service delivering ballots in some locations and to ensure adequate time for replacement ballots to be delivered and returned, the deadline for receiving returned ballots in the contract ratification election has been extended. To be counted, ballots must now be received by January 27, 2025. The previous deadline was January 13.
If you are eligible to vote on the proposed agreement and have not received a ballot, you may call NALC Headquarters at (202) 393-0614 (9 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. Eastern time) to request a replacement ballot. A replacement ballot will be mailed after eligibility is verified.
