The November edition of The Postal Record is now available, featuring coverage relevant to letter carriers. The cover story highlights the Open Season period for federal benefits, running from November 10 to December 8. Readers are encouraged to consider a health plan managed by and for letter carriers.

The issue provides updates on national events, including ongoing news from Washington about the continuing government shutdown. It also explains the details of Open Season for employee benefits and offers guidance on reviewing investments in the Thrift Savings Plan.

Additional features include information about donating through the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC), a profile on Frances Perkins, who served as Franklin D. Roosevelt’s secretary of labor, and stories recognizing veterans within the letter carrier community. The magazine includes monthly columns by national officers and staff members.

Readers can access all articles in PDF format or read the full magazine online using FlippingBook technology, which simulates a traditional magazine experience in any web browser. For those interested in listening rather than reading, an audiobook version is also available.
