However, Congress can provide supplemental funding, as seen in the Postal Service Reform Act of 2022, and the USPS may also receive taxpayer funds during crises, like the COVID-19 pandemic.

Without the “junk mail” they wouldn’t have any money to operate. Who uses snail mail? Most use email and have gone paperless for most things.

It’s sad that we sometimes listen to bad information and believe is the way our world is. Cutting the small federal funds will safe little, but cost us the “taxpayers “ greatly. Very sad the way our world seems to be going.

IMO the problem like most federal agencies too many outrageously over paid management/ supervisors/quality control that don’t control quality and not enough worker grade employees. Seems like when the cut it always one actually doing the work and one’s making the decisions don’t cut their own throats. The actual work don’t get done and costs are same or rise.

I wonder if USPS has Flex Time hours for it management like federal government? Another fraudulent management system for management cause they can’t/won’t deal with people coming in late.
