On Sunday, March 24, the National Association of Letter Carriers is conducting a Day of Action with unions, small business customers, civic organizations and faith groups gathering outside post offices across the nation to oppose the proposed ending of Saturday delivery service.

There are two events in Washington state: In Seattle, gather 2-4 p.m. at Westlake Park, 401 Pine St. In Spokane,  gather 3-5 p.m. at the Spokane Valley Post Office, 11712 E. Sprague Ave. All are urged to join these rallies rally and tell Congress to strengthen the USPS for the future and protect six-day mail delivery. Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe’s plan to shrink the USPS and end six-day service is an attack on the future of this great institution, on the customers who need it, and on the employees who support it.
