Hello,
The United States Postal Service has been hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis. But help is on the way.
A proposed bipartisan Senate bill could provide $25 billion in funding to help this vital public service survive the crisis.
However, the bill faces an enormous hurdle: President Donald Trump. Trump is not a big fan of the USPS. In fact, Trump threatened to withhold $10 billion in emergency funding from the agency earlier during the COVID crisis unless it raised its packing and shipping rates. He could veto the bill now before the Senate.
Trump wants to run USPS like a business. But the agency provides an essential service for millions of Americans and is particularly important to citizens in rural communities with limited access to quality shipping. We must protect this important public institution -- can we count on you to stand with us?
