This episode features an in-depth conversation with David Grosskopf Jr., who shares his journey through the USPS and the NALC, his unwavering dedication to union activism, and the many battles fought for the rights of his members. From stopping check-washing schemes and stopping the closure of a mail processing facility to strengthening branch finances and engaging in community actions, Dave’s story is one of relentless advocacy. We also discuss his top tips for organizing successful rallies, crucial HR bills affecting letter carriers, and insights on the state of the NALC today, including leadership challenges and his vision for the future, which ties into his campaign for NALC National Trustee. We even talk some about some other movements within the rank and file such as the Build A Fighting NALC (BFN), the Concerned Letter Carriers (CLC), and APWU's We Wont Be Silenced Movement. Join us to hear Dave’s powerful perspective on what it means to fight for union solidarity, accountability, and change.
