Postal Reform -- Congress Must Deliver

"Printers in the financial, publication, direct mail and commercial segments are directly impacted by postal rate increases," Andersen notes. "More than nine million jobs and $900 billion in commerce depend on the continued viability of the USPS. Every postal rate increase is met with declines in mailing volume. Smaller volumes mean fewer jobs. It's just that simple. This is too big a risk not to act promptly to avoid a truly punishing postage rate increase that amounts to a stamp tax. The jobs of our employees and the strength of our industry are at stake."
