House Unit OKs Extra for Post Office Budget
The House Appropriations Committee voted unanimously on Thursday to provide Postmaster General Arthur Summerfield most of the extra 143.5 million dollars requested to run the mails next year. The panel approved 153 million in extra funds, trimming only 18.5 million from Summerfield’s ask, and urged saving more than 82 million by cutting postal services including Saturday operations. Summerfield promised serious consideration of economy proposals and was told to avoid a repeat of last April when service cuts prompted a legislative funding override. The extra money lifts the department’s total to 3.325 billion for the next fiscal year beginning July, though the committee noted further savings could be found without harming mail service.
