In the midst of more assaults and thefts against United States Postal Service workers, especially in Pittsburgh region, the president of the branch 84 chapter of the National Association of Letter Carriers is speaking about legislation he hopes will prevent this type of violence.
“HB 1065. The two main components is that it’ll upgrade the technology to value the aero keys right, and then the other thing is, it’ll increase the prosecution rates for federal prosecution at the local level,” said Ted Lee.
According to the National Association of Letter Carriers, since 2020, there have been more than 2,000 attacks on carriers nationwide. They say what rarely happened now sometimes occurs two or three times a day, in the same city.
