Postal Workers Sue Over Anthrax Exposure

A group of Washington-area Postal Service employees who claim they were deliberately left in harm’s way during the 2001 anthrax attacks plan to file a class action suit Wednesday against the agency. Brentwood Exposed, a group professing to represent hundreds of current and former postal workers, allege that Postmaster General John Potter and other agency leaders violated the employees’ Fifth Amendment rights by withholding information relating to contamination at the Joseph Curseen Jr. and Thomas Morris Jr. Processing and Distribution Center.
