Show Notes
The U.S. Postal Service is facing a financial crisis due to a significant drop in mail volume, with officials warning of potential insolvency by 2026. The decline is attributed to the shift towards digital communication and increased low-profit advertising mail. Lawmakers are skeptical of the Postal Services request for flexibility to raise rates and borrow more, while also considering a potential reduction in delivery days. Without congressional intervention, everyday mail services could be severely impacted.
