The U.S. Postal Service is in crisis with poor service, soaring prices and losing large amounts of business, punctuated by a $6.5 billion loss last year, and about the same forecast for this year. That is bad news for rural America, small businesses and charities, and the many millions of Americans reliant on the Postal Service every day, including our veterans for delivery of their medications. This unhealthy mix of skyrocketing prices, declining mail volume and mounting financial losses threatens USPS’s long-term survival.
