Today, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee leaders introduced the Postal Service Reform Act of 2017 (H.R. 756). The bill addresses unfunded liabilities of the US Postal Service, makes reforms to keep mailing costs affordable, and encourages innovation – all without additional borrowing capacity from taxpayers.
The bill’s cosponsors Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-UT-3rd), Ranking Member Elijah Cummings (D-MD-7th), Reps. Mark Meadows (R-NC-11th), Dennis Ross (R-FL-15th), Gerry Connolly (D-VA-11th), and Stephen Lynch (D-MA-8th).
