1. wow!

What a great idea! Think I'll do the same. I love my postal people! They do a great job!

[appalachiablue]

2. Terrific, thank you US Postal Workers!

[in_cog_ni_to]

3. That really is a GREAT idea!

I think I'll steal it!

PEACE
LOVE
BERNIE

19. I have an extra bumper sticker I'll leave in my mailbox.

The same mailman asked me in '04 if I could spare some Kerry signs. He couldn't find any. I had plenty.

[hootinholler]

4. Yes, we should all do this! n/t

[Fawke Em]

5. Ha!

That's mine!



And it's the most popular thing I've ever Tweeted.



Mail hasn't run, yet, though. It runs late at my house - about 5 p.m.

6. The NALC, National Association of Letter Carriers DID NOT

endorse Bernie Sanders. She's thanking a "postal worker" whose union endorsed Hillary in 2008 and will likely endorse her again.

[Fawke Em]

7. If we let them know we appreciate their sister union, it will spread.

Why are Hillary supporters all over the Bernie Group today?

Y'all have your own protected group and that hate site for Hillary fans. Please go home.

[retrowire]

8. if this was posted in the Hillary group

against Hillary, the banhammer would come down pretty fast.

[oasis]

9. I didn't notice the forum header from the home page.

My IPad has a small screen. It was an honest mistake, as you know, I have never posted here before.

That being said, facts are good to know. The NALC, represents letter carriers. APW represents clerks, mail handlers and custodians.

17. excuses, excuses

Over there, it don't matter.

[oasis]

18. Facts, facts

matter everywhere.

[Fawke Em]

20. You do realize many clerks and mail handlers eventually

become carriers and they all know each other and work together, right?

[oasis]

22. There was a time both unions acted as one in the collective

bargaining agreement with the US Postal Service. That ended 25-30 years ago when then,NALC president, Vincent Sombrotto asked the NALC membership to part ways with APW. Sombrotto, being the strong union leader he was, believed the clerk Union leadership was allowing the USPS too many concessions.

Naturally, clerks and carriers get along fine at each facility/post office. They inter marry and attend social functions together.

When it comes to union business, including politics, shop stewards of each union, follow the directives and recommendations of national headquarters in Wash. D.C..

Bulletin boards in facility break rooms inform members which house representatives, senators support the Unions and USPS. Privitization of the Postal Service has been the biggest concern of both unions since Newt Gringrich was Speaker.

10. Lightening quick, in fact.

[SheilaT]

13. I could swear I read that the postal workers

did endorse Bernie. Did they, or did they not?

[oasis]

15. Please see post#9. And a note

The NALC and American Postal Workers unions represent different crafts within the U.S. Postal Service.

The AFL-CIO affiliated NALC has over 300,000 active and retired members.

[druidity33]

23. APWU is also AFL-CIO affiliated

and has over 200,000 members. Any word on whether HRC would support Postal Banks or eliminating the onerous retirement funding obligations imposed precisely to bankrupt the USPS?

[Dont call me Shirley]

11. Postal Workers Rock!

[Divernan]

12. Excellent idea - I'll do that too

I know my regular delivery/postman supports Sanders, because we've already talked about it.

[AzDar]

16. K & R

[zentrum]

21. Nice.

I'm going to do that too.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

24. We should all leave a note for the postal worker
