Its official just moments ago, President Biden signed the Postal Service

Reform Act into law. We've said it before, and we will say it again. This is

the greatest legislative victory for postal workers in a generation and

its all because of you. This is a historic achievement for our

union, said APWU President Mark Dimondstein. Congratulations to

every postal worker who has organized for over a decade to ensure this long-needed

postal reform legislation became law. The Postal Service Reform Act marks a

tremendous victory for our union, for all postal workers, our families, and for the

people of the country who depend on robust, reliable and sustainable universal postal

services. With the passage of this historic act, the USPS will finally be placed

on a path towards financial stability with the repeal of the onerous and financially

debilitating pre-funding mandate. There are many more fights ahead  to

defend and expand our rights as postal workers and protect the USPS from attacks.

But today, let us celebrate this victory, and remember the lesson at the heart of our

union founding. Everything we have, everything we've won, and

everything we hope to win, depends upon one thing: solidarity. Acting alone, we are

powerless in the face of our opponents the privatizers with their mountains of

cash and their armies of lobbyists and lawyers are frighteningly powerful. No single

one of us can defeat them alone. But when we stand together when

thousands upon thousands of us each do our small part and take collective action

 that is a force which can achieve anything. Today’s historic victory

belongs to you, brothers and sisters. In solidarity, The American Postal Workers Union
