NALC Extends Ratification Ballot Deadline For Some Members
Message fron NALC:
Votes in the rank-and-file ballot referendum on ratification of the tentative agreement for a new five-year contract must be received by the Ballot Committee by 11:59 p.m. on August 27 in order to be counted
However, the deadline is being extended to 11:59 p.m. on September 6 for 16,630 members whose ballots were misaddressed due to a problem in the mailing software, as explained in the latest NALC Bulletin.
A list of affected members and their branch numbers is posted here. If you are on the list, a new ballot has been mailed and you will be given extra time to vote. If your name is not on the list and you have not received a ballot, contact your branch president immediately to request a replacement ballot.

I have had a very bad back since 2000, had 1 mim. surgery and 1 major surgery the major was infusion of the lower level. 3 levels with rods and bolts. now I find out that the two disc above my surgery are near the time for more surgery. I have 33yrs of service as a letter carrier and don’t know if I can make the next two yrs. I have lossed so much time not working, that I don’t know if it would be better to retire on disabilty or to keep on lossing pay and work when I am capable which is not very often, never mind the harassment from mgt. Please, any info would really help me make a decision Thank You George

You should consider disability retirement. Heck,
you are close to retirement anyway. You would
probably take home the same amount of money
being out on disability.
