Group Canvasses North Portland to Save US Postal Service

This week is the busiest week of the year for the US Postal Service. Despite all the business, the postal service is on the verge of bankruptcy because of a pre-funding mandate imposed by a lame-duck Congress in 2006. 

Here in Portland, a door-to-door canvassing group called Working America is taking up the cause of saving America's postal service. 

KBOO's Jamie Partridge has more on this story.
