DEJOY Act
The DEJOY Act requires the U.S. Postal Service to maintain the first-class mail service standards that were in effect on January 1, 2021, including delivery speed and reliability benchmarks. This means the Postal Service cannot change these standards, such as by reducing delivery speed or altering service frequency. The bill directly affects the Postal Service by mandating adherence to the specific service levels established on that date. Consequently, the Postal Service must continue meeting the same first-class mail delivery expectations as they were in early 2021.
