Congress must fully fund the United States Postal Service before it runs out of money this October. The USPS is not a luxury — it is infrastructure that millions of Americans depend on for medicine, ballots, and basic goods. Letting it collapse is a choice, and right now that choice is being made deliberately.
Trump and his allies have been systematically gutting the Postal Service through cuts, downsizing, and privatization schemes designed to make it fail. A weakened USPS isn't just an inconvenience — it's an attack on mail-in voting and the democratic process itself. Handing this public institution over to private interests would strip service from rural communities and low-income households who have no alternative.
The deadline is real and the damage is intentional. Pass emergency funding for the USPS now, and reject any privatization proposal that puts profit over public service.
