Yesterday Congressmembers Greg Casar, Jamie Raskin, Judy Chu, and 74 other Members of Congress sent a letter calling on USPS to immediately implement the nation’s first-ever federal heat rule to protect postal workers from increasingly frequent heat waves and the triple digits across the country this summer. I want to express my strong support for this letter and ask you, if you weren’t a co-signer, to immediately echo this request. The federal government needs to do more to address the danger to its workers of extreme heat, and the USPS is a perfect place to start.
While we’re on the subject, please ask the Postal Board to fire Louis DeJoy—he’s literally the worst. Thanks.
