Postal workers are not members of SEIU. Clerks are members of APWU, the American Postal Workers Union. Carriers are members of NALC, the National Association of Letter Carriers. The mail handlers have their own union also.
Thanks Colonel. I had two renters, both working for the post office, who talked about their problems with the union; I paid little attention, and leaped to the assumption that there was only one union. My mistake.
Unions of government workers always benefit from growing governments, so I lump them together, but shouldn’t out of ignorance about the unions involved.
If you know, since the SEIU descended from some very old power centers, and was very close to the AFL/CIO, and since government workers once could not be represented by unions, from whom did postal worker unions descend?
One thing that makes them more tolerable than other public unions, is the prohibition on postal strikes since the New York action.
