USPS Act
S 1641, the USPS Act, requires the Comptroller General to investigate nationwide mail and postal property theft annually for five years. The reports must detail current Postal Service security measures and offer recommendations for improving theft prevention, submitted to the House Oversight Committee and Senate Homeland Security Committee. This bill directly affects the U.S. Postal Service and Congress by mandating regular, detailed oversight of theft patterns. It does not create new security policies but establishes a reporting mechanism to inform future decisions. The focus is on transparency and data collection, not on immediate operational changes.
