Domenici Backs Amendment to Postal Reorganization Act
U.S. Senator Pete Domenici co sponsors a amendment to the 1970 act to require criteria before closing third and fourth class post offices. The measure targets rural New Mexico offices amid Government Accountability Office pressure to cut closures. It requires consideration of proximity to other offices, service to families, revenue impact, burden on alternative offices, energy needs, and local impact before any closure. If kept open, unprofitability will not justify shuttering the office. An explanation must appear in the Federal Register within 30 days of a closure decision and 30 days before implementation.
