The United States Post Office is considering moving mail production out of the area, which could mean lay-offs.

Denny Palmer, President of American Postal Workers Union, says "We're trying to educate the public on what's going on with the U.S. Postal Service. Doing a study to test the feasibility of moving our mail from Bowling Green to Nashville, Tennessee. We're out here trying to protest that decision."

With the postal service considering moving the processing center, the possibility of workers losing their jobs is a big worry.

Cindy Creighton, an employee of the Post Office, says "Jobs could be impacted. Some employees may have to take jobs in other states."

These employees held the rally simply because they want their jobs and mail to stay in Kentucky.

Creighton says, "I'm a customer too. I may work here but i am a customer. I know that when I bring my mail here to get delivered, that it's going to get delivered."

State legislators showed up to lend their support for keeping the mail in Bowling Green.

Rep. Jody Richards of district 20, says, "We're out here showing our support for Bowling Green, Warren County, and the workers who live here and do a nice job for us."

Jobs are just too hard to find right now to let them leave this community.

The Postal workers are asking for your help with this task.

Creighton says, "Contact your state representatives. It's an election year. Have them get on the ball and help us out here."

The branch in question is the one on Scottsville Road.

It's unclear when the final decision about the move will be made.
