US senators urge Postal Service to pause delivery network changes

A bipartisan group of 26 senators on Wednesday urged the U.S. Postal Service to pause planned further changes to its processing and delivery network, warning they could slow mail deliveries.

The letter, seen by Reuters and led by Senator Gary Peters, who chairs the committee overseeing the USPS, urged a halt until the impacts are studied by the Postal Regulatory Commission. There has been mounting anger in Congress about changes USPS has said are necessary to cut its projected financial losses.
