28th Biennial APWU National Convention-
The just‑concluded 28th Biennial APWU National Convention in Los Angeles brought together thousands of delegates from locals across the country in what became one of the most energized and consequential gatherings in recent APWU history. Delegates arrived with a shared purpose: to strengthen our union, defend our rights, and chart a bold path forward for postal workers nationwide. Over several days of intensive deliberation, workshops, and collective action, the convention reaffirmed the APWU’s commitment to protecting jobs, improving workplace conditions, and expanding the voice of postal workers at every level of the organization.
This year’s convention was marked by a renewed sense of unity and determination. Delegates debated and passed resolutions addressing critical issues such as workplace safety, staffing shortages, technological changes, contract enforcement, and the future of the Postal Service. The discussions were thoughtful, spirited, and grounded in the lived experiences of postal workers from every craft and every corner of the country. The decisions made in Los Angeles will shape national policy, bargaining priorities, and union strategy for the next two years — ensuring that the APWU remains strong, responsive, and ready to meet the challenges ahead.
Beyond the business sessions, the convention offered powerful moments of solidarity. Delegates participated in educational workshops, leadership trainings, and craft meetings designed to strengthen local union capacity. National officers delivered impactful reports outlining the union’s achievements and ongoing battles, while guest speakers highlighted the importance of public service, labor unity, and political engagement. The convention hall echoed with the voices of workers standing together, reaffirming that the strength of the APWU lies in its members — united, informed, and committed to protecting the rights of all postal employees.
For Local 732, the convention served as both an inspiration and a call to action. Our delegates returned home with renewed energy, deeper knowledge, and a stronger commitment to advancing the interests of our members. The resolutions passed, the strategies discussed, and the solidarity displayed in Los Angeles will guide our work as we continue fighting for safer workplaces, fair treatment, and full enforcement of our national agreement. The 28th Biennial Convention was not just a meeting — it was a powerful reminder that when postal workers stand together, we move forward together.
