Today in Labor History March 18, 1970: The first mass work stoppage in the 195-year history of the U.S. Postal Service began on this date in New York City. The walkout was illegal, giving President Richard Nixon the excuse to send in federal troops to sort the mail. But the strike succeeded in forcing Congress to raise wages and reorganize the postal system and marked a new militancy among postal employees.
Also there's an event in Albany, NY state, USA on 19th March 2025 about this bill or something.
Go! If you dare -- and can do so sustainably or feel is worth overextending for.
