HAPPENINGS Postal forum: Fixing North Portland’s mail Oregon Congressman Earl Blume- nauer wants to hear mail stories from residents, businesses, and postal workers in the 97217 zip code—Portland’s Kenton neighbor- hood, where a pilot project called “Consolidated Casing” has been under way since September. In that zip code, US Postal Service man- agement is trying to speed up mail carriers, eliminate the number of mail routes, and break-up (deskill) their job into two—the “sorters” and the “street carriers.” What’s been the result? Kenton’s mail de- livery has been screwed up. Mail is arriving days late, in the dark, to the wrong address, and with constantly changing letter carriers, may of whom are working 10-12 hour days, with mandated overtime. Rep. Blumenauer wants to hear these stories first hand, and has pledged to share them with the de- cision-makers at the United States PostalService. The postal forum is sponsored by Community and Postal Workers United. ■ What: Fixing North Portland’s Mail, a postal forum with U.S. Rep. Earl Blumenauer ■ When: Saturday, January 25, 2020 9:30 -10:30 a.m. ■ Where: Celebration Tabernacle, 8131 N. Denver, Portland.
