APWU: Postal Reform Act Is No Endorsement of Privatization
"The passage of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement
Act in December 2006 did not change the fundamental mission of
the Postal Service, an APWU leader testified on Capitol Hill,
and should not be perceived as justification for privatizing
the nation's mail system or eliminating its obligation to
provide service to all Americans." -

Battle of the Brands
"The largest player in the U.S. overnight package delivery
business is attempting to increase its market share in the
fast-delivery business next month. USPS is barely holding on
to its 32% market share in the business, as FedEx and UPS
continue to push the envelope at 31% and 25% market share,
respectively. For the first time, shippers using Express Mail,
Priority Mail, and several other parcel services will be able
to get lower rates for large- and medium-volume contracts,
according to the agency. Will UPS and FedEx need to cut their
prices further to compete with the USPS?" -
