Scope and Contents

The American Postal Workers Unions Bridgeport local is writing to a representative regarding HR-2353, which aims to prohibit the use of 9-digit zip codes.

They also highlight the importance of improving safety conditions and creating a better working climate in postal facilities to increase productivity.
