Citizens, Postal Workers and Elected Officials are coming together to keep our historic Post Office a Public Building.

This Saturday, November 1st, join Congresswoman Barbara Lee in the Fight Against Postal Service Privatization! Gather
on the Post Office steps. Music starts at 10:30 a.m. Congresswoman Barbara Lee will speak at 11 a.m.

Attorney Tony Rossmann, outside counsel for the city of Berkeley, will update us on why the city of Berkeley is close to taking legal action against the U.S. Postal Service and what are the best legal strategies for making the Postal Service honor its obligation to preserve our nation's heritage.

Gray Brechin and Harvey Smith, partisans and scholars for Berkeley’s architectural and New Deal heritage, will speak. We’ll also hear from members of the American Postal Workers Union and the Stop Staples campaign, Jac McCormick the founder of the National Post Office Collaborate and Berkeley Councilmembers including Jesse Arreguin, the author of the Zoning Overlay that protects Berkeley’s Civic Center Historic District from commercial development.

We've got terrific speakers. Saturday morning you want to be at the Post Office.

Please show your support Saturday!

    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.
