On behalf of the nearly 500,000 postal employees who live and work in communities all across America, the NPMHU, APWU, NALC and NRLCA have jointly endorsed a request to the White House, seeking a Presidential Proclamation establishing a “Postal Heritage Day”. This proclamation would recognize America’s Postal Service as one of our great national treasures. By way of the proclamation, all Postal Unions respectfully request that President Obama designate July 26 “Postal Heritage Day” to recognize the Postal Service as a vital institution which belongs to the American people, and should be protected as a public service, a public asset, and a national treasure.
