Next up: A house committee

Law

Very unlikely to pass

The Postal Service usually tries to move away from curbside delivery to save money, and this bill currently lacks broad support or a companion in the Senate.

Key Points

This bill would force the Postal Service to deliver mail directly to the curb for residents in smaller neighborhoods. It applies to groups of 50 or fewer single family homes that are close to other houses already getting curbside service.
The Postal Service would be banned from using any of its money to stop or limit curbside delivery in these specific areas. This prevents the agency from switching these neighborhoods to centralized cluster boxes where residents have to walk to get their mail.
To qualify for this service, the neighborhood must be within 300 yards of another home that already has curbside delivery. This rule aims to help people in newer or smaller developments get the same service as their neighbors.
