TOP NEWS STORIES
Postal Decisions To Be Announced Thursday
5.16.2012 - WPTZ reports: "The Postal Service will announce changes to its distribution network Thursday, a representative with the agency tells NewsChannel 5. A self-imposed moratorium on potential closures within its mail processing network ended Tuesday. "Prior to public release of any additional information, our top priority, as is standard operating procedure, is to ensure our employees are notified first," said Tom Rizzo, a Postal Service spokesman." - APWU: USPS to Announce Modified Consolidation Plan (PDF) - Mandatory Stand-Up Talk (PDF) -

Postal Service halts plans to close 600 urban and suburban stations
5.15.2012 - The Washington Post reports: "The Postal Service backed off the plan to close the 3,700 post offices last week, saying it would no longer close thousands of rural post offices but would keep them open with shorter hours. The mail agency on Monday reiterated that about 600 branches and satellite stations in urban and suburban locations that had been included in the original study for closure also will be kept open, rather than shut down sometime after Tuesday." -
USPS Announces Plan for Rural Post Offices
5.09.2012 - The National League of Postmasters reports: "The plan will impact over 13,000 offices. Currently, 9,500 of these offices are served by an incumbent Postmaster. Congress is considering over 25 bills to protect rural post offices but, unfortunately none protect Postmasters. The POStPlan matches SOV/CSV earned hours to hours of operation. In a nutshell those offices that do not earn full-time staffing will be reduced to part-time offices." - Mailers OK With Plan - APWU Statement - USPS: List of Affected Post Offices (PDF) - USPS: Preserving post offices in rural America - USPS: New Strategy - NYT - 'If you can't close them, reduce them' - Sen.

USPS Announces VER Incentive for 21,000 Postmasters
5.09.2012 - The National League of Postmasters reports (scroll down): "USPS also has announced a Voluntary Early Retirement (VER) and Special Incentive Offer for the nation's 21,000 Postmasters. The offer consists of a one-time, $20,000 cash incentive, payable in two installments. Postmasters who want to leave under the VER - as well as Postmasters who have reached their minimum retirement age and service requirements, and those who wish to voluntarily resign - are eligible for this special cash incentive." - FAQs (PDF) -
Senators lobby both sides of postal moratorium
5.04.2012 - The Hill reports: "Almost half of the Senate's members have now called on Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe to extend the moratorium, after the chamber passed its postal legislation last week. Those lawmakers - including the 43 mostly Democratic senators who wrote to Donahoe on Wednesday - say that moving ahead with closures before Congress can finish its work could devastate communities around the country." -
