The United States Postal Service is planning to begin slowing the delivery of first-class mail in an effort to save money, despite some opposition.

NPR reported that Postmaster General Louis DeJoy's 10-year plan has been met with criticism from some members of the US Postal Service's Board of Governors.

The news outlet reported that the board's governor, Ronald Stroman said the decision isn't justified by the "relatively low financial return," and creates dangerous risks.

DeJoy said adjustments have been made, but still wants to move forward with the plan.

NPR said DeJoy announced the plan in March. The goal is to ensure longterm financial stability for the post office.

Just saying: I moved just a wee bit ago. And was already informed if I anticipate getting magazines, I must pay for said service with USPS now. My two weeks or such is up.

One has to pay it seemed for other mail but I chose to not keep reading. I shall find it in my email later.

Financial realities, USPS has to operate mostly like a real business. USPS has to self-fund pensions which the Federal Government does not and USPS is not technically part of the federal government.
