Instead, USPS would pay a small, yearly \"top-up\" payment to address actual annual retiree costs.\nThe agency has reported net losses of $86.7 billion since 2007. One reason is 2006 legislation mandating that it pre-fund more than $120 billion in retiree healthcare and pension liabilities, a requirement that labor unions have called an unfair burden not shared by other businesses.\n\"This common-sense, bipartisan legislation would help put the Postal Service on a sustainable financial footing,\" said Senator Gary Peters, a Democrat who chairs the panel that oversees the Postal Service.\nThe Postal Service has struggled with poor delivery performance over the past year, facing a huge boost in packages and COVID-19 staffing issues.\nThe bill would require USPS to maintain delivery for six days a week.\nA USPS spokesman said on Wednesday the agency was \"encouraged to see the introduction of bipartisan, bicameral postal reform language.\" If passed, the financial reforms \"will be a major step forward for financial sustainability of the Postal Service,\" the spokesman added.\nIn March, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy proposed a 10-year strategic plan that would eliminate $160 billion in forecasted red ink by slowing some mail deliveries, cutting some retail hours and closing some locations.\nDeJoy told Reuters in March that action was urgently needed. \"We’re losing $10 billion a year - gotta fix it,\" he said.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":false,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":197575342,"gmtCreate":1621476141686,"gmtModify":1704358209615,"author":{"id":"3574392084255465","authorId":"3574392084255465","name":"dent","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e54b2a08f8905d05e3d00b78582bf531","vip":1,"crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3574392084255465","idStr":"3574392084255465"},"htmlText":"Please like and comment","listText":"Please like and comment","text":"Please like and comment","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/197575342","repostId":1103542681,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":197570383,"gmtCreate":1621475918842,"gmtModify":1704358199890,"author":{"id":"3581466055330001","authorId":"3581466055330001","name":"Steventeo","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f579b5cba569decf00183de8a6a2ab3e","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3581466055330001","idStr":"3581466055330001"},"htmlText":"Gogogo","listText":"Gogogo","text":"Gogogo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/197570383","repostId":1103542681,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":197544270,"gmtCreate":1621475844690,"gmtModify":1704358198596,"author":{"id":"3574521189147374","authorId":"3574521189147374","name":"ping23","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/c38fda829a130d716804cbae538a7cb8","vip":1,"crmLevel":3,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"authorIdStr":"3574521189147374","idStr":"3574521189147374"},"htmlText":"pls like &amp;
