Dear Friend,
Millions of Americans, especially retirees, rely on the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) for daily, home delivery of mail, medicines and important goods and services no matter where they live.
Like many institutions, the coronavirus crisis has hit the Postal Service hard, as business activity slows. In response, the government has approved hundreds of billions in relief for businesses and individuals.
In March, President Trump personally rejected emergency postal service funding, and his Administration even suggested it would block the stimulus package Congress approved if it included help for the USPS.
USPS was given a loan. But it won’t be enough. Without more funding, the Postal Service will run out of funding in September -- just before vote by mail and absentee voting for the 2020 presidential election gets underway.
The U.S. Postal Service is a vital American institution that has served a critical role for more than 200 years. We can’t let it fail now.
Thanks for all you do.
Richard Fiesta
