WASHINGTON (WJZ) — Rallying for safety. Hundreds of Maryland mail carriers descended on the Capitol, pushing for federal safer working conditions after a Maryland postal worker was gunned down while delivering mail after dark.
Following Tyson Barnette’s murder on the clock, fellow employees want changes to work schedules to prevent a repeat of this tragedy.
Maryland postal workers flooded the Martin Luther King Memorial in Washington Monday, fighting for safer working conditions along Tyson Barnette’s family.
“I don’t want another life to be taken away,” said Bridget Barnette, Tyson’s mother.
Postal Workers Rally To Make Their Job Safer
Never heard any complaints from the carriers in Alaska. Are you a scab?
Because the color of the sky isn’t what makes it unsafe!
Maybe it’s because there are very few park and loop routes in Alaska and 6months of darkness is a way of life up there.
Why hasn’t the union ever protested the working conditions of employees in Alaska who have worked in the dark forever during winter?
