LETTER CARRIER POLITICAL FUND:
Political Fund:
The Letter Carrier Political Fund is a non-partisan political action
committee (PAC) stablished for the purpose of electing qualified candidates
who support letter carriers and who are committed to maintaining a strong
and innovative U.S. Postal Service. Each year, NALC fights to fend off
attacks in Congress that threaten letter carriers’ collective-bargaining rights,
retirement benefits and livelihood. We’ve been successful so far, and we want
to continue helping to elect House and Senate candidates who will protect us, promote our issues and deliver our message to Washington. Since union dues can’t be used to support candidates for political office, NALC relies 100 percent on member
contributions to the LCPF, which in turn helps us support those on Capitol Hill who defend the issues that matter most to us. Our PAC brings together in Washington strong letter carrier advocates—from all political parties—who are dedicated to helping to defend a strong USPS that provides universal, innovative and affordable service.
How do I become a member and/or contribute?
The easiest way to become a member of the Letter Carrier Political Fund is to contribute through automatic payroll deduction.
