H.R. 6407 (109th): Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act

Last edited Sun Nov 11, 2018, 11:36 AM - Edit history (1)

This Act must be one of the first items on the New Democratic Congress agenda for repeal, and a law should be passed that denies Congress from robbing from the retirement fund, this law was enacted when that asshole John Boehner and Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) were in office..........................they are now gone.

I am urging everyone to write and phone our new majority elected representatives and all new / and re-elected members in the Democratic party to repeal this Act, that has placed a undue burden on a Constitutional mandated system, and to turn postal offices into banks and mail delivery service should be expanded.

Congressional phone: United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121.

At the time this was passed, it had bi partisan support. Hopefully, getting it repealed will be just as easy
