Last year DFA members joined numerous partners as we pushed Congress to repeal the requirement that the USPS annually prepay future retiree health benefits, a requirement imposed since 2007 that has caused the agency to have over $40 billion in deficits.
The hard work of DFA members has now made it highly likely that the financial integrity of the United States Postal Service will be restored along with numerous additional benefits.
The Postal Service Reform Act would:
- Reduce the Postal Service’s annual operating expenses by eliminating the Republican mandated pre-funding schedule
- Move some USPS retirees on to Medicare, thus further reducing the financial burden of retiree health care costs
- Allow the USPS to offer non-postal services to generate other streams of revenue
To Save the USPS, the Senate must take action.
Write your Senators today to urge them to vote for the Postal Service Reform Act.
Thank you for raising your voice and joining DFA to save the United States Postal Service.

Even with a Democratic President, Congress, and Senate, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema stop us from getting much done.
The good news is that we only need to flip 3 Senate seats to take power away from Manchin and our Senate candidates in Wisconsin, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Kentucky are ready to do just that.
Contribute now to support DFA's work to Save the Senate!
