Dear PFAW Member,
A strong public postal service has been a cornerstone of our democracy since its founding. We must protect it.
Add your name to the petition demanding that Congress act to protect USPS NOW! >>
Since 1792, USPS has ensured that every American, no matter where they live, can receive essential packages, prescriptions, ballots-by-mail, birthday cards, letters, and bills at an affordable cost. A letter from Washington, D.C. to Texas costs the same fifty-five cents that a letter from Texas to Alaska costs.
While the USPS has become particularly strained during the pandemic, its vital services are perhaps even more necessary than ever before. But due to the decades long effort to undermine the agency in favor of privatization and the need for additional resources to protect essential workers in the midst of the pandemic, the already struggling agency is facing extraordinary challenges to stay operational.
And with the 2020 election around the corner, where many Americans will likely cast ballots by mail to mitigate risks of voting in person in the midst of a pandemic, the work of the USPS is crucial to the future of our democracy.
In these challenging times, we need to be connected and we must strengthen the services that keep us in community with one another. The USPS plays an integral role in sustaining those connections – help us protect it.
Thank you for your advocacy. Wishing you and your family health and safety!
In community,
Charlie, PFAW
