Who We Are
More than 200,000 postal, mail and logistics workers and retirees, in both the public and private sectors, united in one democratic, member-run union.

Our bargaining, legislative and community campaigns put people before profit, resist privatization and advance social and economic justice for all working families.

The rights and benefits we enjoy today are because others stood together.
