Mailmen threaten strike over stalled pact in Boston
National Association of Letter Carriers leader James H. Rademacher warned 500 Boston area mail carriers that a new contract must be in place by July 21 or the union would consider not working. He noted current law bars strikes unless Congress authorizes them and a member vote approves, with 200,000 nationwide represented. Negotiations with the US Postal Service began last month, recalling the first national postal strike three years ago.
