EARLY OUTS APPROVED FOR RURAL CARRIERS

In early July the NRLCA was notified that the Postal Service had filed an application with OPM requesting permission to offer early outs to employees in the rural letter carrier, city letter carrier, motor vehicle and maintenance crafts.
Today we received notification from the Postal Service that they have received approval from OPM to offer Voluntary Early Retirement (VER) to rural letter carriers. No details have been released at this time, but as soon as details become available we will advise the membership.

Ok guys, we got a copy of Rep. Filner's letter where he is going to ask PMG Potter to take steps to help us out.  But, he needs other reps to sign this letter with him. 

Lets get a campaign going and everyone contact their reps..  The more they hear from us, the better chance we have to get something done.

There is a place to find your reps and a copy of the letter to PMG and the letter to Rep. Filner's colleagues asking them to sign the letter with him.  Contact your reps and strongly urge them to support and sign this letter.
