Hi John,

The U.S. Postal Service’s (USPS’) Next Generation Delivery Vehicle should be union-made in Wisconsin. Sign the petition to tell USPS and Oshkosh Defense: We can build it here!

USPS’ Next Generation Delivery Vehicle is an opportunity for the Biden administration to make real investments in both a cleaner future and good union jobs, but the contract, as it currently stands, fails on both accounts.

According to President Biden’s Build Back Better plan, when public money is used to buy vehicles, they should be electric and made in the United States with union labor.

USPS awarded the $6 billion contract for the next generation of postal vehicles to Oshkosh Defense, a company with a reputation for tough military trucks built with union labor with just a small number of electric vehicles on order.

But instead of using this opportunity to expand quality jobs under a decades-old union contract, the company plans to refurbish a vacant warehouse in another state and build these vehicles without a commitment to union wages or representation.

Sign the petition now and tell Oshkosh Defense that we can build it here and keep good union-made jobs in Wisconsin.

Many are unhappy about the way USPS has gone about this contract for the next generation of U.S. postal vehicles because they will not help solve the problems of climate change, and they aren’t going to be built with union labor. USPS needs to fix its mistakes.

Let’s Build Back Better and put letter carriers in union-made vehicles that are good for the planet.

Add your name if you agree.

In Solidarity,

Team AFL-CIO
