After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

The Save the USPS Coalition invites you to an “all-hands” meeting on Postmaster Louis DeJoy’s gas-fleet, non-union contract with Oshkosh Defense. In this meeting, we plan to bring together postal advocates and labor, environmental and contracting experts to discuss what legal and political actions we can take to slow and stop this contract. If you are interested in working in coalition to bring down this contract, fill out this Doodle Poll and let us know when works for you. Further, if you know of anyone working in this area who should be included in the call, please let us know.

Who we are:

The Save the USPS coalition is a group of nearly 300 public interest groups that came together when Postmaster General Louis DeJoy was appointed to  protect and expand the postal service into a hub for community services.

Background on the Oshkosh Contract:

With DeJoy’s direction, USPS plans to spend $11.3 billion on a new fleet of USPS trucks. This contract with Oshkosh has a slew of environmental and labor issues. The trucks would be mostly gas-powered and be built by non-union labor in right-to-work South Carolina. Watch More Perfect Union’s quick video covering the contract’s long list of issues. Our ask is a nearly entirely electric fleet built by union workers in Wisconsin. USPS claims the contract is finalized, but it’s not over yet!

Help us strategize about the next stage of this fight!

Please fill out this Doodle Poll as soon as possible.
