USPS Regulator Approves Price Spike But Warns
Mail Slowdowns Could Have Worse-Than-Expected Impact
7.20.2021 -
GovExec reports: "The Postal Regulatory Commission on Tuesday did not flat out reject Postmaster General Louis DeJoy's plan to slow down delivery windows for some mail, but suggested the proposal was not fully thought out and its success was far from guaranteed. On Monday, it signed off on the Postal Service's new pricing structure set to go into effect later this year."

Capitol Hearing Focuses on Frustrations With Mail
Delays
7.14.2021 -
WUSA 9 reports: "Today, we leave mail behind because of plant processing
issues, machines breaking down and fewer machines in the building. We make fewer
trips, we are understaffed and we are required to stick to a rigid delivery
schedule which requires drivers like myself to leave with trucks that are not
fully loaded," postal truck driver Brian McLaurin said during the hearing. "To
make matters even worse, postal facilities are short-staffed. When mail finally
arrives at the station, there are not enough workers to process the mail and get
it through for delivery." -
