The USPS Membership Committee is one of the largest and most important committees of our organization. We are divided in three divisions, each chaired by a Staff Commander. Additionally there is a national team at Headquarters led by Lena Padro, padrol@hq.usps.org, which takes care of the organization and the daily need-to-do-activities of the committee. If you have any questions or need assistance please contact me directly.
