The union representing postal workers endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden’s White House bid Friday as the United States Postal Service (USPS) finds itself in the middle of a national controversy over new changes by its postmaster general. The National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), which consists of nearly 300,000 active and retired postal workers, said Biden and his running mate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) will be effective allies in the White House. The decision to endorse them was based on input from union members via polling, surveys, responses to its candidate questionnaire and a discussion with Biden. “Vice President Biden is – was – and will continue to be – a fierce ally and defender of the United States Postal Service (USPS), letter carriers, and our fellow postal brothers and sisters. NALC’s endorsement and our support come down to Joe’s steadfast support of us and his unwavering dedication to improving the lives of all working people throughout this great nation,” the union said.
