The Postal Service is projecting a $33 billion shortfall in 2020. How much will the Postal Service raise prices to cover these costs?
Pricing is one part of the larger solution. It is not known at this time what the specific amount will be but it will be influenced by the ability to eliminate prepayment of retiree health benefits and changing frequency of delivery. The Postal Service plans a moderate increase that will minimize the impact to customers.
