Miscellaneous


NAPS Director of Legislative and Political Affairs Bob Levi goes solo on this week's edition of NAPS Chat. Bob discusses the Postal Regulatory Commission's (PRC) Advisory Opinion on the Postal Service's proposal to slow down the mail, which the Commission, in its opinion, characterized as "not ready for prime time," and Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro going to federal court to stop the proposal. In addition, Bob talks about the PRC's affirmation of the Postal Service's August 29 rate increase. Bob also chats about committee-approved legislation relating to postal family-medical leave, new legislation to change the method for determining retiree COLAs, and the pending H.R. 3076, the Postal Reform Act of 2021.
