USPS Shelves Plan to Cut Saturday Mail Deliveries
Today, the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) bowed to pressure from Congress to continue delivering regular letters on Saturdays. The Postal Service issued a statement from its Board of Governors, following its meeting today, conceding that legislation passed by Congress to fund government operations until the end of September 2013 “has prohibited implementation of a new national delivery schedule for mail and packages.”
USPS said it will continue to press for the ability to move to a five-day-a-week delivery schedule for ordinary mail, stating that the move would save $2B a year in operating costs.
