The United States Postal Service is a critical public service that millions of Americans rely on for affordable mail delivery, especially in rural areas. However, recent changes like mail slowdowns and facility closures have threatened its ability to function effectively. We must ensure the Postal Service remains under public ownership and control, sufficiently funded, and able to provide prompt and reliable service nationwide. Congress should take action to protect this invaluable institution from privatization efforts that could undermine affordable universal service. The Postal Service is a public good that must be preserved for all citizens.
