More Delays
The Postal Service has delayed part of its plan for closing 82 mail processing centers this year. The closures are to start this month. But for at least ten of the facilities, that date has been pushed to April. GovExec reports a spokesman said the Postal Service wants to wait until after potential bad weather passes. Members of Congress have objected to the closure plan. A majority of Senators and 160 House members signed a letter to Postmaster General Patrick Donohoe, asking him to delay the closures for one year. Shutdown of facilities the Postal Service deemed unnecessary started in 2012. So far Postal has closed 141 plants.

Has anyone ever announced a big plan AFTER it was executed?
whatever happened to the Pony Express?
Why in the world would congress ask them to delay this? Sounds like the fiscal thing to do.
Congress doesn't want them to do it because it will delay mail, plants will be further away and take longer to get the mail from point a to b
If easton closes the eastern shores mail will go to baltimore then come back to the shore instead of it just going to easton
WAAAAAAA!!!
