Let’s Fight Reduced Delivery Standards
APWA plans to oppose a Postal Rate Commission proposal to change delivery standards. If adopted, the change would shift mail to processing centers, reducing small-office distribution and threatening local postal jobs. The commission is expected to rule before June 30, 1990, so letters of protest should be sent promptly. A sample opposition letter is provided for individuals and families to use.
