Service & Solidarity Spotlight: Unions File Lawsuit Against DHS to Stop the Illegal Termination of TSO Contract
Working people across the United States regularly step up to help out our friends, neighbors and communities during these trying times. In our Service & Solidarity Spotlight series, we’ll showcase one of these stories every day. Here’s today’s story.
AFGE, the Communications Workers of America (CWA) and the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) filed a lawsuit Thursday over the illegal and unilateral termination of a negotiated collective bargaining agreement that covers approximately 47,000 transportation security officers (TSOs).“This attack on our members is not just an attack on AFGE or transportation security officers. It’s an assault on the rights of every American worker,” said AFGE National President Everett Kelley in a press release. “Tearing up a legally negotiated union contract is unconstitutional, retaliatory and will make the [Transportation Security Administration] experience worse for American travelers.”

March 13, 2025Read the special edition of The American Postal Worker here.
Right after the March/April issue went to press, the public Postal Service, our jobs, and our union came under serious and unprecedented threat by the billionaire “Wall Street” class and the new presidential administration who are aggressively pushing to take over and dismantle the public Postal Service for their own private gains and profits. This is a threat unlike anything we’ve seen before, and it’s more important than ever that we fight back.
The important information in this special edition cannot wait until the next regular cycle of our magazine. The time is urgent! Never in our modern history have postal workers and postal unions faced such wealthy and organized forces arrayed against us and the people’s right to universal public postal services, no matter who we are or where we live. The Postal Service belongs to the people, not the billionaires. “The U.S. Mail is Not for Sale!” Read the special edition online here to learn more about what is happening, why, and how together we can fight back!
