Thousands of post offices could close and prices could increase if Congress doesn’t step in to help the U.S. Postal Service, the agency’s top official warned.
In remarks to USPS Board of Governor’s meeting, Post Master General David Steiner said the drastic changes would be required if Congress fails to grant USPS legislative changes and funding support.
“We have peak season coming up, so we would not take any action until after the New Year, but if we can’t get agreement on a legislative package this year, our plans would certainly have to entail changes that will impact service like taking a look at our service levels and closing thousands of unprofitable post offices, as well as raising prices,” Steiner said

Donahoe threatened to end six-day delivery in 2013 but Congress thwarted that plan. He slammed Congress in 2015 at the National Press Club. Can’t wait to see what Congress does with Steiner’s threat.
He doesn’t need to be given any money.
That was a Democratic Congress with a Democratic President??
And we still had mail volume in 2013.
No mail anymore. Not even much Amazon anymore.
But, still plenty of salaried employees not doing much.
Real Reform is needed before any money should be given!!
The House was majority Republican in 2013 and total mail volume fell from 2012.
the Dems had the Senate and the President.
And Boehner actually cared about more then
licking trumps ass!!!
Mail collapsed during covid!!
We had those useless flat sorters that
cost billions and were worthless!!!!
I used to get 5 trays of DPS in 2016?
Now I get 2????
The patented Steiner threat; hold a gun to Congress’ head and reform nothing, despite numerous damning OIG reports slamming the USPS for blatant incompetence, all the while collecting bonuses for failure. If time runs out, and Steiner is counting on it, the USPS should get enough to get through peak and no more. He still hasn’t given congress his “modest “ number yet. Only a fool would give this guy the full amount.
