On Tuesday night, February 10, 2015, the Berkeley City Council adopted a Resolution supporting the creation of financial services by the United States Postal Service. A report by the USPS Inspector General found that offering increased financial services at post offices will help millions of America's poorest families and increase revenues for the U.S. Postal Service.
Thanks to the Mayor and Council Members and special thanks to the sponsors of the resolution: Linda Maio, Susan Wengraf and Jesse Arreguin.

    ABOUT

    The USPS wants to sell Berkeley's historic main post office. Citizens to Save the Berkeley Post Office is a grassroots group that has come together to block the sale of our heritage, stop service cut backs, and preserve living wage postal jobs.

    Our fight is not unique. Thousands of post office closures across the country mean the largest private auction of public history our nation has ever seen.

    Join the movement and spread the word. Our post office is not for sale.
