USPS Union Calling for Mass Labor Action to Protest Firings

On Sunday, the US Postal Service Workers Rank-and-File Committee, an affiliate of the International Workers Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees, held a well attended online meeting aimed at organizing mass action by the working class to defend the USPS and oppose the mass firing of federal workers and gutting of essential services by Donald Trumpf and his oligarch partner in crime, billionaire Felon Musk. Over 150 people from around the world, including postal workers in the US, Canada and the UK, participated in Sunday's discussion. Participants discussed and adopted a resolution titled "Oppose the Mass Firing of Federal Workers and Defend Postal Jobs!" The resolution was overwhelmingly supported, with 99 percent of attendees voting in favor.

Pres Trump, during his first term, appointed person to lead the USPS to make it more efficient.

So then, theoretically, the USPS workers should not have any concerns because the USPS has already been made more efficient since Pres Trump's first term?

Hi Lamplighter. You are correct indeed. Trumpf's selection of Louis DeJoy supposedly made the USPS more efficient these past several years. So why would DOGE go after them? Did Postmaster-General Louis DeJoy fail these past four or five years?

well attended online meeting [...] Over 150 people from around the world [...] with 99 percent of attendees voting in favor.

So ~150 people "from around the world." WTF?

Ah, an article from the World Socialist Web Site. LOL!

Hi LegallyYourDead. Agree. Freeze the economy: No Amazon, streaming services, restaurants, WaPo, sporting events, fast food joints. Just buy food and drink water. Drive minimally and don't buy gas. Starve the economy, since the oligarchs want to starve us.
