Washington Postage Rise Hits Mail Service Costs
The U.S. Postal Service plans to raise first class letters from six to eight cents and postcards from five to seven cents with airmail to eleven cents, effective around May 15. Officials admit higher rates won’t improve service and will cut weekend staffing while eliminating some Saturday downtown mail pickups. Delays persist between New York and Washington despite a fast air link, blamed on routine slowdowns rather than weather or night work.
