Solidarity with Postal Workers

Members of AFT-Maryland turned out in a show of solidarity to stand with AFL-CIO sisters and brothers of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU)​​. The show of force was to protest to privatization of postal service, as the USPS has a deal with Staples where they provide mailing service to customers costing numerous APWU members jobs.

The protest was organized by a group called Popular Resistance, a progressive group who does work on behalf of public sector unions as well as other causes that directly affect the general public. The response to the protest was strong as many citizens honked in their passing cars as well as filled out letter to be delivered to the postmaster general in an effort to show the public's demand not to privatize the post office.
