    APWU Brothers and Sisters, 

     

    As you are aware, President Trump has recently made comments that concern the Postal Service.  If these statements come to fruition, the Postal Service will be changed, in what the union believes, for the bad.  The President has spokenmultiple times of potential privatization in the past statements.  If this happens, it will degrade service standards even more as corporations would only look at the profit margin and not the service aspect, driving customers to our competitors.   

    Please join us March 20, 2025, from 12:00 – 1:00 pm at the Charleston Main Post Office 1002 Lee Street on the public sidewalk near the flagpole.  APWU headquarters has requested simultaneous rallies across the nation during this time.  We understand this time is not convenient for those scheduled to work, but if you are available during this time, we would greatly appreciate your participation. There will besigns, banners and pamphlets to pass out to the public.  It is OUR job to inform OUR customers of the potential effects of President Trumps deliberations and how it will impact them.  

     

    Thank you, 

    Tim Holstein 

    Vice President APWU 133

    Not a better time than NOW!

    Apwu133
    By Apwu133,

    Not a better time than NOW!

    Summertime is finally here!  Fresh cut grass, baseball, vacations, going swimming on a hot day and sitting on the front porch.  All the things we look forward to when you can’t find the ice scraper on a ten-degree Monday morning in January.

    Now that it finally is here, will it just be like those of the past or will you do something with purpose and reward?  Just like the weather changes, so does your union.  Retirement, health and personal issues affect us all, causing some of the normal faces to come and go. But the one thing that doesn’t change is the responsibility we have as officials to represent our members.

    If you have had thoughts about becoming active in the union, there is not a better time than now.  Whether attending a union meeting for the first time or wanting to become an alternate steward for your tour, rest assured, someone will be there if you need help or have questions.  Assistant Clerk Craft Director Thompson holds basic steward training whenever new stewards or alternates step on board.

    So, if you feel like it’s time for you to stand and fightfor the contract, yourself, coworkers and the future, please reach out to either Clerk Craft Director Kayla“Cuppy” Reynolds at kaylacuppy@apwu133.com or Maintenance Craft Director Tiffany Copley at tiffanycopley@apwu133.com and let them know you’re ready to fight.
