Postal Workers Fight for Southeastern Plant

Hundreds of workers turn out in Radnor, pushing to keep the Southeastern facility open.

Carrying signs, placcards and chanting, hundreds of workers and their supporters turned out Tuesday night to push to keep the Southeastern PA postal processing and distribution plant open in Tredyffrin.

They came to a public meeting on a proposal  to close the facility. It is one of 252 postal centers under consideration for closure as the United States Postal Service looks for billions of dollars in cost cutting measures.

NBC10 News was outside as the workers, their families and supporters marched into Radnor Middle School. You can see the NBC10 report by clicking here.
