Key Points

This bill stops the Postal Service from forcing neighborhoods to switch to cluster mailboxes. If you currently get mail at your door or at a box at the end of your driveway, the post office cannot make you walk to a central location to pick it up.
For new housing developments like single-family homes or townhouses, the post office would need permission from the local city or town government before installing cluster mailboxes. Builders and residents would also get 60 days to share their thoughts before any changes happen.
The plan aims to protect people who might have a hard time walking to a central mailbox, such as the elderly or people with disabilities. It also requires officials to make sure mail rules do not unfairly hurt rural or low-income communities.
