Summary

In this powerful return to Hot House with Richie Ray, Debra Dixon, candidate for NALC Region 2 National Business Agent on the Concerned Letter Carriers slate, opens up about her decades of service, leadership, and advocacy for city lettercarriers. From her beginnings as a PTF in 1987 to serving as Region 2’s Regional Administrative Assistant for over a decade, Debra shares the experiences that shaped her and the lessons she learned while representing carriers across six states. The conversation dives into why she is running with the CLC instead of independently, her concerns about the current direction of the NALC, and the consequences of maintaining the status quo. Debra speaks candidly about the future of the union, what members should be worried about, and what real change looks like if CLC wins in 2026. This is more than an interview it’s a warning, a vision, and a call to action.
