No More USPS Rate Case Increases Under Old Rules

The Board of Governors had the option of filing one more rate case under the regulations that had been in place since 1971, but voted to proceed with the new pricing regulations.

“Mailers around the country should be elated that the antiquated, costly and adversarial rate case proceedings are now nothing more than a part of American history,” noted Jerry Cerasale, senior vice president for government affairs at the Direct Marketing Association, in a release. “I am happy to report. . .that the direct marketing community has experienced its last rate case under the old regime.”
