    UPS is a private company, they aren’t subject to the RLA and nothing in Taft-Hartley has anything to say about a single union going on strike.

    USPS is the federal service operating like a business, and since they’re federal employees they aren’t supposed to go on strike, however that didn’t stop them in the 70s.
