The National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC), the union representing the postal workers who will handle millions of mail-in ballots in the upcoming election, has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris.
The American people are expected to trust in an election system where a large part of the voting process, mail-in voting, is being handled by an organization that has expressed its loyalty to one presidential candidate.
On Thursday, the NALC released a press statement to endorse Harris and her running mate, far-left Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
“The nation’s 290,000 active and retired city letter carriers represented by the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) are proud to announce our endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz to serve as the next president and vice president of the United States,” the statement read.
The statement went on to celebrate Harris’ far-left record, attempting to portray her radicalism as support for the “democratic system.”
“As a local prosecutor, state attorney general, senator, and vice president, Kamala Harris is a proven supporter of working families, organized labor, and the Postal Service,” the statement continued. “As a senator, she was instrumental in advocating for essential relief for the Postal Service at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. She served as vice president of the administration that signed the Postal Service Reform Act into law. She is a fierce defender of civil rights, voting rights, and our democratic system.”
The statement also highlighted Walz’s supposed achievements, writing: “Governor Walz is a union brother and veteran. He is a former public school teacher who has devoted his life to public service. As governor, he has kept working families at the forefront by enacting a paid family and medical leave program, child tax credits, and universal free school meals for all Minnesota students.”

Social media users were quick to respond to the concerning endorsement.
Breitbart News senior editor-at-large Joel Pollack expressed concern about the news, writing: “If you vote by mail you have to give your ballot to someone whose union has endorsed one side in the election. How this is even legal at all is completely baffling.”

“Why is ANY Governmental Agency Allowed to Endorse ANY Presidential Candidate? The Union Represents the USPS, a Government-Controlled Agency. The Perception, now, is that the USPS intends to put their collective thumbs on the scale. Gut Blow to Election Integrity,” replied author and entrepreneur Tom Corley.

“Taxpayers forced to fund government institutions who promote a pro government candidate. While FedEx and UPS makes a profit, US mail consistently loses money every year,” another user responded.
