Ask Your Member of Congress to Support New Legislation to Save the USPS!
The U.S. Postal Service has been raising postage twice each year at amounts far above inflation — all while making the mail slower and unreliable. As part of Louis DeJoy's Delivering for America plan, there have been six postage increases since August of 2021. It's the most mailing rates have increased during the U.S. Postal Service’s nearly 250-year history, and it's hurting consumers and the nearly 8 million American jobs that depend on USPS. If we don’t stop these destructive rate hikes, the price of a stamp could be $1.19 by 2030.
Thankfully, Congress is taking action to stop USPS mismanagement — and you can help support the new legislation!
The House of Representatives just introduced the “USPS Services Enhancement and Regulatory Viability Expansion and Sustainability for the U.S. Act” (USPS SERVES US Act, H.R. 9839), which will empower the USPS regulators (the Postal Regulatory Commission, or PRC) to stop USPS decisions that are hurting its ability to serve the American people and driving it into financial ruin.
Please take a moment to contact your member of Congress and encourage them to support the USPS SERVES US Act, H.R. 9839. It only takes a moment to make a difference.
The mail is a critical public service. The USPS the only courier able to reach every community across the nation, and the only service capable of doing so. It's time for Congress to make sure that USPS continues to deliver for America, like it has since 1775. Thank you for raising your voice to save the USPS.
