Video Highlights Chicago APWU Members 'Stop Staples' Protest

A three-minute APWU video highlights the union’s April 5 demonstration at a Staples store near Chicago to protest a no-bid deal between the company and the U.S. Postal Service that staffs “postal” counters in Staples stores with non-postal employees.

“We have to make sure that there’s a vibrant, public post office for generations to come,” explains APWU President Mark Dimondstein. “We can’t do that when the bottom dollar is what’s determining where the people are going to get their postal services.”
