Urgent Messaging on EAS Proposed Downgrades
On Thursday, July 3, 2025, I sent messaging out targeting the Managers who have been issued “Notice of Proposed Non-Disciplinary Reduction in Grade (Position Reclassification)”, on the avenues available to address the Administrative Action being taken against them in this unilateral action that will further degrade the service performance of America’s Postal Service.
While there has been legal standing found to address reclassification, thus far that legal precedent points to employees’ classifications other than EAS.
While I continue to work with the assistance of the other Resident Officers and our Legal and DDF teams, the messaging sent Thursday, July 3, 2025, is being modified to state.
- Upon receipt of a final decision from the Deciding Official, the NAPS member should follow the procedures for an appeal as stated in the decision letter.
I apologize for the necessity of this update as we continue to move forward in what is certainly uncharted territory for many employees. NAPS HQ will continue to review and ensure that all appropriate steps are taken in support of the EAS that continue to Deliver For America.
