Take Action: Protect Amtrak and USPS from Privatization!
Send a message to your elected officials in Congress to protect Amtrak and the USPS.
Our public services are under attack. Efforts to privatize Amtrak and the United States Postal Service (USPS) threaten to undermine essential transportation and mail delivery services that millions of Americans rely on—especially in rural and underserved communities. Tell your elected officials in Congress to protect Amtrak and the USPS.
Privatization means:
- Higher fares and reduced service – Private companies prioritize profit, leading to service cuts and increased costs for riders and mail recipients.
- Loss of accessibility – Rural and remote areas depend on Amtrak for transportation and USPS for affordable mail delivery, including essential services like prescription medications and bill payments.
- Threats to democracy – USPS plays a critical role in delivering ballots, ensuring all voters—especially those in rural areas—can participate in elections.
- Job losses and weaker labor protections – Privatization would jeopardize the livelihoods of dedicated rail and postal workers.
- Riskier, less reliable service – Public oversight keeps these services safe and accountable. A for-profit model would prioritize cutting costs over maintaining safety and efficiency.
We must act now to stop these privatization efforts! Contact your Members of Congress today and demand they oppose any attempts to sell off Amtrak and USPS to private interests.
Take Action: Email your Representative and Senators and tell them:
- Protect Amtrak and USPS from privatization.
- Invest in expanding and improving these vital public services.
- Ensure affordable, reliable, and accessible transportation and mail delivery for all Americans.
Public services should serve the people—not corporate profit. Make your voice heard today!
Thank you for standing up for public rail and mail!
