The report from The President's Commission on the United States Postal Service contains many recommendations, including some troubling ones (click here for the NALC's response). Consequently, the NALC has created the E-Activist network to allow a lightning fast response to any postal legislation that may be considered by congress. Traditional methods of rallying members, postal mail, phone calls and word of mouth, can easily take 2 or 3 days to exact a response from members. The E-Activist network makes it possible to send network members the "call to action" in seconds using email. This, combined with the resulting word-of-mouth, could easily result in thousands of letters, emails and calls to congress within 24 hours of the notification. We can't allow congress to ignore our interests in favor of the special interests of our competitors, who'll be campaigning just as vehemently for their cause (and against our cause).
Ladies and gentlemen, this may be the single most important time period in the history of our jobs. Join this network and heed the call when it comes; it just may protect you and your family's way of life.
To join the E-Activist network, take this link to the NALC.ORG home page. About the center of the home page is the heading, " Join the NALC E-activist Network ". Enter your email address where indicated, click " join " , and you're in.
