Today local U.S. Postal Service workers took the streets with signs in hand to protest the possible closing of 2 Sioux City post offices and the mail processing center.
"Keep your mail in Siouxland" and "Protect Siouxland jobs." That's what it said on some of the signs mail workers were holding as they picketed in front of the downtown postal service building.
The rain certainly didn't keep the workers from protesting the possible move of the local mail processing plant to Sioux Falls. The Morningside and Northside mail branches are also at risk of closing. And the workers were trying to get people wound up before tomorrow's public forum on the issue.
"We're out here today to picket, just to give some information out to the public. Ask them to contact their congress people and come to the meeting tomorrow night on Tuesday evening at 7:00p.m at the convention center and let their voices be heard," said Don Stusse.
The processing plant and two mail branches could close because of poor revenue and low traffic in those branches.
There will be a community forum that anyone can attend and voice their concerns tomorrow night at 7PM at the Sioux City Convention Center.
