On Point: Solutions And Next Steps In Saving the U.S. Postal Service (From NPR)
Lexington Institute’s Paul Steidler and Washington Post reporter Jacob Bogage were the guests on NPR’s hour-long program On Point. They discussed the Postal Service Reform Act and the future of the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) with host Meghna Chakrabarti.
Mr. Steidler emphasized that the legislation, signed by President Biden in April, is insufficient because it does not address several fundamental issues, including the need for USPS to better understand and allocate costs, the need to strengthen USPS’s regulators, and omission of a new universal service obligation, or mission definition, for USPS.
