What it does
The Contract Postal Unit Transparency Act would require the U.S. Postal Service to increase transparency before closing or consolidating any contract postal unit by publishing impact reports, submitting reasons to Congress, holding public hearings (in-person or virtual), and posting hearing summaries online. It would affect communities relying on contract postal units by ensuring they receive advance notice and opportunity to comment on proposed closures. Notably, the bill prohibits any closure or consolidation from taking effect until at least 180 days after the Postal Service publishes a summary of the public hearing, including comment sentiment analysis.
