Postal workers march against job cuts
Published Sep 6, 2010 10:48 PM
The Rev. Jesse Jackson marched Aug. 24 with thousands of postal workers
during the American Postal Workers Union convention in Detroit. APWU and other
postal workers and their supporters marched to say “no way” to the
proposed five-day mail service the U.S. Postal Service management wants to
implement. Getting rid of six-day service would cut tens of thousands of jobs,
the majority of which are held by workers of color and women.
