Four Congressmen have launched a new bipartisan caucus aimed at improving the U.S. Postal Service, focusing on delivery times, protecting employees and stopping consolidations in rural areas.
“For years, rural communities like the ones I represent in Central and Southern Illinois have faced lagging delivery rates, facility closures, and neglect from the top leadership from USPS,” said U.S. Rep. Nikki Budzinski (D-Ill.).
Budzinski said they plan to push back against postal privatization, improve speed and service, and protect good-paying union jobs at USPS.
“I look forward to working together to ensure USPS remains a public good that effectively serves all Americans,” Budzinski said.
The caucus was formed with Budzinski and U.S. Reps. Jack Bergman (R-Mich.), Chris Pappas (D-N.H.), and Andrew Garbarino (R-N.Y.)
