Obama's Postal Service plan would cut Saturday mail
The Obama administration’s plan to rescue the U.S. Postal Service would allow the agency to end Saturday mail delivery and sell non-postal products, according to documents released on Monday.
The agency has said it needs to reduce payrolls by about 220,000 by 2015 and is studying thousands of post offices and about 300 processing facilities for possible closure.
“The president’s proposal would help the Postal Service update its business model to reflect Americans’ changing communications habits,” said Senator Tom Carper, a DEMOCRAT.
