Hello my Brothers and Sisters,
Our State Convention held in Myrtle Beach, SC on last month was label another success. We thank the members of
Branch 4645 and the staff of Crown Reef Resort for their hard work to assure a flawless Convention. We received a lot
of useful training information ,also an abundance of political updates was presented. There was precise information given
concerning the hurdles being faced by the United States Postal Service. The social times shared by all was remarkable.
The five-day delivery dilemma is still prevalent,it should enhance our stance to remain united.We must continue to strive
for the continuance of six-day delivery to our customers. Saturday deliveries is very important for some of our prime business
customers and our senior citizens.
I wish all my Brothers/Sisters and their families a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day. Let us not forget about our veterans
who gave their lives and others who served their country to enable us to enjoy our freedom in the United States of America.
In Solidarity,
Richard (Dick) Jones

Hello Brothers and Sisters,
We are almost one quarter of the way through the year of 2010 and what a year thus far. We have
endured a cold winter and some unusual white stuff(snow) for South Carolina.
The climate for the United States Postal Service have also been quite stormy. The Postal Service
even put together a 90 minute briefing on five-day a-week delivery and floated copies of it around
Capitol HIll to the gullible. We have the support of our President Obama requiring the continuation of
the six-day delivery by the Postal Service. We must maintain our vigilance to assure the United States
Postal Service remain as a viable organization.
Call your Senators and Congressman and tell them that you want them to support the continuation of
six day delivery by the U.S. Postal Service.
In conclusion, lets prepare for a good State Convention next month at Myrtle Beach. If you are unable to attend,
arm your delegate(s) with some good ideas that can be shared by all in attendance. See you at the
Beach.
In Solidarity,
Richard (Dick) Jones

Where have the Year 2009 gone? We have struggled with a falthering economy, nagging wars, and the
critical issue of Healthcare Reform. The United States Postal Service also faced the turbulence of a financial
storm just to ensure its survival. Let us continue to work with the Modified Interim Alternate Route Adjustment
Process (MIARAP). Remember, this is to help us gain territory, thereby we will continue to to enjoy future
employment.
Let us remember our men and women of the United States Armed Forces during this holiday season.
To all my brothers and sister of the SCSALC and their families, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year!
In Solidarity,
Richard (Dick) Jones

I would like to thank our State President Emily Lane and the members of South Carolina State Association of
Letter Carriers for appointing me as your Congressional District Liaison for District 2. I will do my absolute best
in keeping the members of the district informed about congressional issues that pertain to our membership. I
will also ensure that the interest and concerns of the branches within my district are communicated to the Honorable
Joe Wilson's office.
On May 28 2009, I went to Congressman Joe Wilson's office in West Columbia. I just wanted to introduce
myself and make sure that his office was aware that letter carriers are active constituents of his district. I had the
privilege of meeting the congressman, his chief of staff, and his counsel. I thanked Congressman Joe Wilson for
his support of Bill H.R.22. I believe he understands the importance of this bill to letter carriers.
Please take time to become an E-Activist. You can sign up at the home page of the NALC Website.
In Solidarity,
