\"Hegarty_1\"(July 22, 2014) President Hegarty addressed the Delegates of the APWU\u2019s 2014 National convention sanctioning a message of solidarity between our Unions. When commenting on the recently signed Postal Union Alliance, Hegarty said, \u201cWe are not divided on the issues \u2014 those who would do us harm cannot divide and conquer.\u201d President Hegarty noted that the Postal Union Alliance has solidified the joint spirit of cooperation that has us working towards common goals like never before.<\/p>\n

Hegarty spoke at length about the onslaught of never-ending Postal reform legislation, and the Union\u2019s unified presence on Capitol Hill when calling on all Delegates to deliver the Union\u2019s message to their Senators and Congressional Representatives. Hegarty commented, \u201cTake the time to write that letter\u2026 we need to hold our member of Congress accountable.\u201d Hegarty also commented on the Union\u2019s opposition to the Postal Service\u2019s plant closures, the degradation of service standards, the preservation of six-day delivery and door-to-door delivery.<\/p>\n

President Hegarty acknowledged the Union\u2019s ongoing partnership when addressing such issues as safety, health and security, but spoke most passionately about the NPMHU\u2019s wholehearted support for the APWU initiated Stop Staples campaign. Hegarty said, \u201cWe were happy to join with you in numerous locations around the country in the Stop Staples campaign. I can tell you we sent a message loud and clear; the U.S. Mail is not for sale.\u201d<\/p>\n
