The Postal Service, which lost $16 billion last year, had announced last month its plan to switch to five-day mail service to save $2 billion annually.
No law requires the Postal Service to deliver mail six days a week, but Congress has traditionally included a provision in legislation to fund the federal government each year that has prevented the Postal Service from reducing delivery service.

Is that Constitutional??? Can the Government tell u to do things?
beyond retarded.... I only need the mailman to come by once a week.
Only a government that thinks revenue is unlimited, would cease to cut spending where it can be saved, they are all idiots.
Cutting back delivery simply pushes the pain to the lowest paid employees in the USPS. Those sitting behind desks don't want their pay cut. The USPS needs to re-engineer to save any real money. Congress should force them to stop unprofitable services such as junk mail. The carriers would then have much fewer stops per day and they can cover a greater geography. Just like UPS and Fedex.
I want to know if Harris voted for this continued waste of money.
today is only Thursday and I didn't even get any mail today!!
This is such a waste of money ... but who is surprised by Congress wasting money?
