Rep. Aaron Schock talks to Postmasters about uncertainty of USPS

U.S. Rep. Aaron Schock addressed postmasters from across Illinois on Friday, assuring them reform of the U.S. Postal Service is beginning in Congress, even as postmasters are uncertain what cutbacks may be coming, or even how many days a week their mail carriers will be delivering.

 Schock acknowledged the heavily legislated government agency has been pressured to be more financially viable while it cannot make many internal decisions without Congress’ say so.

 “In many foreign countries around the world, similar postal services have struggled with similar problems … and in many cases their post offices have remained profitable despite even more dramatic declines in the mail volume than we’ve seen in our own country,” Schock said.
