Together we can save our neighbors jobs, our small businesses, and post offices. Equally, if not more importantly, together we can save our ability to vote by mail during the Trump plague
Donald Trump and the GOP slash and burners, want to kill the Post Office. They want to take away our right to vote.
They want to kill one of our largest unions, one that is made up of a large number of women and people of color.
They want to control access. The USPS mandate is to deliver mail to everyone. Period.
They want to remove our control over our own government.
Together we can stop them.
Were in a war for our country and its time to suit up in whatever ways we can.
Go to https://t.co/01jFDCziuO and order a sheet of stamps.
# buystamps, save the postal system and our Democracy. Lets get it done!

(42,641 posts)It was one way to "balance" the flood of debt incurred, but as well, the USPS was exploring the use of electric and alternative fuel vehicles in 2005.

(12,174 posts)Got some T. Rex (the dinosaur, not the musical group ) stamps coming, as well as prepaid post cards, post card stamps (I like to make my own sometimes), and some other cool Forever letter stamps.
I had family members who were letter carriers, and I've always loved the post office. They just keep on doing a great job, despite Republican efforts to bankrupt them.

(13,583 posts)purposely kept mailing bills and cards to help the post office. Maybe for selfish reasons because my husband worked there for years. He has retired, but still mail several bills and cards.

(1,192 posts)Yes the dreadful 2006 Republican Act has put the Post Office into negative balances, but what can we do today in this Republican times? Answer... nothing. Yes your stamps will support the system, but majority of the revenue is actually from "junk mail". Use common sense, in this time of lockdowns, essential activities is not going to your local post office and pay for a us postage stamp with 55 cents for a sweepstakes mailing.
What can you do? Just relax.... if the negative balances occur.... you will still get your mail. It is in the US Constitution.
