US Postal Service Vows to Save Universal Mail Delivery

The Postal Service has delivered its Transformation Plan to Congress. This comprehensive Plan was developed to address both the near-term and long-term efforts that will result in a continued ability to fulfill the mission of the Postal Service – to deliver business and personal mail affordably to everyone, everywhere.

Postal Service leadership commits to leading the near-term effort of managing the immediate challenges facing the Postal Service. Successful long-term transformation that safeguards universal service in the future is contingent upon the commitment of all stakeholders to work together toward a common vision. It is hoped that this Transformation Plan will spur public policy debate on the most appropriate long-term structure necessary to ensure an efficient, reliable and innovative delivery service sector that meets the future, diverse, economic needs of the nation.
