This resolution states that Congress should take steps to keep the United States Postal Service (USPS) an independent federal establishment and prevent its privatization. It does not set out specific steps.
The resolution expresses the Senate’s view; it does not specify changes to postal services or prices. It asks Congress to take appropriate measures to keep USPS independent.
The resolution gives no estimate of expenses. It describes USPS as self-sustaining and funded by revenue from postal services and products.
The resolution says USPS serves communities across the country and argues that privatization could raise prices, reduce services, and harm rural communities and e-commerce.
