Three mailers' organizations blasted a labor deal with the National Association of Letter Carriers yesterday as proof that the "spendthrift monopolist" U.S. Postal Service "cannot be counted on to control its costs or prices."

"Rather than bringing compensation more in line with the private sector – as required by postal law – the tentative agreement with NALC worsens the problem," said a joint statement from Postcom — The Association for Postal Commerce, MPA — The Association of Magazine Media, and the Alliance of Nonprofit Mailers.
