Bill > S1065

This bill requires the United States Postal Service (USPS) to provide more comprehensive public notifications when planning significant nationwide service changes. Specifically, the bill amends existing postal service regulations to mandate that when the USPS intends to implement a change affecting postal services on a national or near-national scale, they must submit a proposed change to the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) and request an advisory opinion. Additionally, the USPS must post detailed notices in postal facilities for at least 30 days after the change goes into effect. These notices must include specific information such as the details of the change, implementation timelines, anticipated impacts on postal services, information about public meetings and comment opportunities, contact information for public feedback, and other helpful resources. The bill aims to increase transparency and provide stakeholders with more information about potential modifications to postal services, giving the public a clearer understanding of how their mail services might be affected by proposed changes.
