  If you text USPS to 50409 they will send letters to your senators and representative in support of the postal service. It takes under one minute. Help save our democracy. #SaveTheUSPS

  Since when do mail carriers not deliver the mail @USPSHelp @USPS due to a vehicle in front of house? 15 years with same mail carrier never a problem; new one comes along with excuses why not to do her job. #CustomerService

  @DWPippy Today I received a hostile notice from my home insurance company that payment had not been received and they would canx me. I mailed it a week before due date!! I found where the check had cleared but USPS was so slow in delivery of their notice it was overcome. USPS in trouble.

  The law required the Postal Service to prefund its retirees' health benefits up to the year 2056. This is a $5 billion per year cost. USPS received no taxpayers subsidies.

  @RichardGrenell How much money did the military “lose” last year? The USPS is a national service, no different than our military. It should be given the same resources and same respect

  @USPSHelp It arrived for real the next day. This frequently happens with USPS deliveries. The carrier marks then as delivered, but they don’t show up until the next day. It’s very frustrating.

  @JarOfComics @USPS Completely agree. I have stated that the need to be literate should be a requirement of employment with the postal service too, we regularly have mail go missing or delivered to the wrong address; an address occupied by people who tend to keep that mail. Shocking 🤨

  @seancannell Create a USPS administered competitor with a basic service for all American citizens with additional services available for a low fee. #USPS_Modernization

  @BernieSanders The Postal Service #USPS @USPS mandate is broad and complex and overburdened with cost as it is without piling on financial services responsibilities. Even if they were able to then on the add'l load, it is unlikely Congress will allow them to keep most of the profits generated.

  2/ Universal service ends. USPS is legally required to deliver everywhere at the same rate. Alaska to Manhattan, same stamp price. Private carriers charge $4.50-$5.40 "residential surcharges" and $3-$6 "rural surcharges" on top of base rates.

  @PG_rayC @TCGplayer USPS is ***. They've lost more than one of my orders from TCGplayer (or the seller never shipped them, had an issue with Direct recently too), but asking for more because the price went up is incredibly sus.

  @USPS You’re talking about harming postal workers pensions? The entire @USPS needs to be reformed! Poor service. I do everything to stay away from.@USPS! Typical government run agency that does not do their jobs!! SHAME ON YOU!!!

  @iAnonPatriot As they should have! I'm a former USPS employee and proud to have been one. It angers me when I see horrible people working for the service. It's hard to get terminated after the initial 90 day probation and that's a problem

  USPS Raids Its Own Pension Fund The postal service is burning retirement savings to buy time Congress won't give it. $118bn in losses since 2007. First-class mail — the agency's best earner — has dropped to volumes not seen since the 1960s. The borrowing limit sits at $15bn, a cap Congress set in 1992 and never raised. USPS maxed it out years ago. Postmaster General David Steiner, a former FedEx board member who took over last July, told Congress the agency could run dry as soon as October. His predecessor's turnaround plan promised to break even by 2024. USPS posted a $9.5bn loss instead. Amazon is also pulling back. The company is reducing the volume it ships through USPS — right as the agency auctions off last-mile delivery access to survive. Steiner's pitch to Congress: Hike the price of stamps from 78 cents to 95 cents or more. He also wants the borrowing limit raised and pension funds invested beyond Treasury bonds. An 8% surcharge on packages kicks in on April 26. Cutting delivery days is on the table… But federal law still requires six-day service to 169 million addresses. The GAO's verdict is blunt: The business model is "unsustainable." USPS has been on its High Risk list since 2009. And starting this year, it owes an estimated $750m in new retiree health care payments — costs Congress mandated but never funded. *** Pension fund as petty cash. Peak America. ***

  @WPXI The increase should be far larger than four cents per stamp. US tax taxpayers subsidize the USPS to the tune of billions of dollars a year. This means that we are also subsidizing every piece of junk mail sent via USPS. Stop subsidizing USPS, raise the stamp price to appropriate levels to stay solvent, problem solved.

  @USPSHelp @USPSHelp USPS claims my package was delivered but it was not. The did NOT include a picture of the delivery. On multiple occasions they delivered my pkg to the wrong address. I cannot contact a person with @USPS without going to the post office. OUTRAGEOUS!!!

  The delay vs. on-time ratio is closing in. And the Amazon orders that ship via USPS are the worst in my experience - jammed into an apartment mailbox or a day or two late. I’m 100% not renewing Prime.
