US postal unions seek to divert opposition to privatization to dead-end appeals to Congress A recent roundtable in Washington was designed to cover up the responsibility of the union bureuacrats and the Democratic Party for preparing the way for Trump’s privatization plans.

For years, the union bureaucrats have lied to workers that privatization is not on the way. Worse, NALC and the NRLCA have explicitly supported the “Delivering for America” restructuring program after they walked doge in the door !!! www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

The political meaning of the April 5 mass protests against Trump Mass opposition is developing to the fascist in the White House, but the movement can only go forward through a break with the Democratic Party and a struggle against the capitalist system.

working people become politically mobilized and seek to take action to defend their jobs, living standards, and rights. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...
