From working in extreme heat, to facing violent assaults on the job, and daily battles with management, no one understands our fights like our brothers and sisters. We were honored to welcome @NRLCA President Don Maston to today’s general session. We’re stronger together!

It is heartbreaking that every year we lose rural carriers to heat-related illnesses while delivering in LLVs. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of NRLCA member Umeshkumar Thakkar.

I met with leaders from the @NRLCA during their annual fly-in to hear directly from those who serve rural routes across the country. They raised concerns about on-the-job risks, gaps in retirement credit for longtime federal workers, and proposals that could shift the Postal Service away from its public mission. In parts of South Texas, many families and small communities depend on consistent rural delivery for medications, business operations, and daily communication. I’m working in a bipartisan way to support policies that strengthen the postal workforce and keep service dependable. Delivering for our district means ensuring rural residents continue to receive the reliable mail service they count on every day. – at Washington, DC

The NRLCA was informed of @USPS decision to temporarily suspend employer retirement contributions to FERS. This move should not be taken lightly: Congress needs to take action to address USPS's financial challenges. Our statement here: nrlca.org/News/1855

Yesterday, the bipartisan Congressional Postal Caucus held its first public roundtable. NRLCA Vice President Pitts emphasized the urgent need for Congress to take action to pass the Protect our Letter Carriers Act (H.R. 1065) and the anti-privatization resolution (H. Res. 70).
