TAKE ACTION: Tell your members of Congress HELL NO to increased retirement contributions
As the reconciliation process progresses, even though the Postal Service operates without taxpayer funding, the Senate is considering increasing Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS) contributions from 4.4 percent to 15.6 percent for all postal employees hired after Jan. 1, 2026.
“This is a disgusting attack on future letter carriers,” NALC President Brian L. Renfroe said. “Our work is harder than it's ever been, and this is nothing more than a significant pay cut for future letter carriers. We will not stop fighting until this ridiculous proposal is shut down.”
