Bill > HR1133

This resolution celebrates the 250th anniversary of the United States Postal Service (USPS), an institution founded in 1775 that has consistently provided universal mail delivery to all Americans, regardless of their location or financial situation, thereby fulfilling its constitutional duty to connect the nation. The resolution acknowledges the USPS's crucial role in delivering essential items like prescriptions and election ballots, supporting families, businesses, and communities, and highlights the dedication of its over 630,000 employees nationwide. It emphasizes that the USPS is a self-sustaining public entity vital for democracy, connectivity, and economic opportunity, and expresses concern that any attempts to privatize or weaken it would negatively impact affordability and accessibility, particularly in rural areas. Therefore, the resolution reaffirms support for the USPS as a public service that must remain accessible, affordable, and accountable to everyone, ensuring its continued mission to serve all households and communities.
