USPS Faces Preemptive Backlash to Expected
Soaring Price Hikes
5.27.2021 -
GovExec reports: "Constrained by inflationary caps, USPS has issued modest price increases of around 2% in recent years. This year, observers expect the hike could be as high as around 7% for First-Class Mail and higher for other products. In a recently released 10-year business plan, postal management said it expected to increase revenue by $35 billion to $52 billion over the next decade directly from rate increases." -

Senators reach bipartisan deal to reform USPS
finances, tighten accountability requirements
5.19.2021 -
Anchorage Daily News reports: "A bipartisan group of senators is
expected to introduce legislation Wednesday to lift significant financial
burdens off the ailing U.S. Postal Service while tightening accountability
requirements for mail delivery, a major stride toward reform for the agency that
has tussled with its balance sheet and reputation for the better part of a year.
The bill, identical to a version that's advanced in the House, would repeal $5
billion a year in mandatory retiree health care expenses and require future
postal worker retirees to enroll in Medicare. Advocates say the measures will
save the agency $30 billion over the next decade." -
