This week the American Postal workers Union (APWU) launched a national advertising campaign on to alert the public about proposed plans to privatize the public postal service.
The APWU has secured a major victory for the rights of non-probationary employees who are discharged without just cause from the Postal Service to file grievances on those discharges and have them heard in arbitration
On July 10, APWU members overwhelmingly voted in favor of ratifying the 2024-2027 National Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between the APWU and USPS
Membership of another postal union approved their collective bargaining agreement, as the U.S. Postal Service faces new leadership that could revamp recent modernization efforts that have been heavily criticized.
Prior to vacating the U.S. Capitol for an abbreviated July 4th Recess, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 1, the 2025 Budget Reconciliation Act, by a vote of 218-214 and sent it the President for his signature.

The payment amounts will range from $965 to $50. Please note that some employees will not qualify for a second payment due to their individual situation.
Instead, workers are being asked to vote on a proposal drafted by the APWU and presented as if it were final—despite being subject to change at any time after ratification.
