WASHINGTON —With bargaining over a new contract having apparently broken down, the Postal Workers and their allies will take to the streets for mass rallies on October 1, demanding respect, a new pact and public input into Postal Service decisions.

So far, dozens of Postal Workers Day Of Action rallies are planned at post offices ranging from Seattle, Spokane, San Diego and Honolulu in the west to Minneapolis, Detroit and Springfield, Ill., in the Midwest to McAllen and El Paso, Texas and Key West, Fla., in the South, Tucson in the Southwest and the Canarsie Station in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Lewiston, Maine, in the Northeast.

An interactive map where people can find local rallies, along with other details about the contract fight, is at https://apwu.org/day-of-action.

Key points in the bargaining are short-staffing, management stiffing the public—and the union—and no progress in talks for a new contract.
