The Postal Service’s Board of Governors is urging its regulator not to put limits on its ability to set higher mail prices, after posting another multibillion-dollar quarterly net loss.
USPS posted a $3.1 billion net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 — a greater loss than the $2.5 billion net loss it saw for the same period last year.
But Postmaster General David Steiner said USPS is “on the right path,” under a 10-year reform plan launched by his predecessor, former Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.
“The strategy is sound. Now we have to execute,” Steiner said during a public meeting of the USPS Board of Governors on Thursday. “But we can’t execute unless all of our team is working together. We all need to be rowing the oars in the same direction.”
