Press Associates at People’s World reports the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) has put the bipartisan Protect Our Letter Carriers Act (HR7629) atop their legislative priority list for the rest of this Congress.  Why?  Because NALC wants to change the scenario of pulling U.S. Postal Service Police away from pursuing thieves and protecting its Union-represented Letter Carriers from theft, injury - and even murder.  And the impact is compounded because U.S. Attorneys don’t treat thefts and injuries as a top priority.  “We are here to send a very clear message: Enough is enough is enough,” NALC President Brian Renfroe said during a rally in Baltimore, Maryland. “The next step is critical and that next step is Federal Legislation that will deter these attacks from happening, prosecute every criminal who attacks one of our Members and protect Letter Carriers while doing their jobs.”
