Hard Road Ahead for Postal Reform

Committee last week is a good first step on what still promises to be an arduous journey.
The bill, authored by committee Chairman Darrell Issa, passed strictly along partisan party lines, with all Democrats voting against it. That leaves little hope for passage, in its current form, by a Democrat-controlled Senate. Indeed, it may not even be brought before the House for a vote by Speaker John Boehner (R-OH). Nonetheless, interested parties in the catalog and direct mail communities feel certain Issa's bill gets the mail trucks rolling in the right direction.
