USPS letter carriers hold rally after postal worker killed in Chicago shooting

CHICAGO (WLS) — A crowd of United States postal workers rallied Monday morning to demand action from elected leaders.

“We’re out there and we’re facing the dangers of society right?” letter carrier Michael Caref said. “And so we’re getting stuck up out there. we’re dealing with crazy people out there….and we just wanna know who is out there to protect us?”

Union members from the National Association of Letter Carriers says violence against workers on the job needs to stop. They want more police protection and laws in place to keep them safe.

“It should be a felony not only at the federal level but at the local level for attacking letter carriers,” union VP James Henry said.
