A national movement made it's way to Tucson. People spent the early morning of Monday, October 8 protesting the privatization of the U.S. Postal Service. 

About two dozen people lined up along Broadway Blvd. between Swan and Columbus Rd. to bring awareness to the issue.

Back in June 2018, the White House's office of management and budget proposed to shift the business of mail carrying to a private entity. 

A report on the impacts of a possible move has not been publicly released.
