Rural carriers oppose Hochs proposal in letters to congress
Rural carriers across the nation object to Congressman Hoch of Kansas proposing to lengthen rural routes. A Kansas group journal editor quotes a long letter detailing how carriers work three hours daily, request fair credit, and argue for changes to improve service and funding. The letter questions the postal department’s self sufficiency and urges reconsideration of residence deliveries and postal costs. It also notes legislative support and potential tax implications.
