Reno’s issues with US Postal Service far from over, Amodei warns

Although the U.S. Postal Service gave notice last month it was abandoning plans to reroute Reno-area mail processing to Sacramento, the battle with USPS is not over, Nevada’s 2nd U.S. House District Rep. Mark Amodei said on “Nevada Newsmakers” recently.

The USPS plan, announced in late August, allows processing of single-piece mail to continue in Reno. But as the Christmas season approaches, the question of processing packages and parcels in Reno remains unsettled, Amodei told host Sam Shad.

“So if anybody thinks that it’s like, mission accomplished, that we’re declaring victory and moving on … we’re still in the trenches, slugging away, making sure we know everything there is to know about what’s going on at that Reno sorting center, as well as post offices throughout Nevada,” said Amodei, a Republican from Carson City.
