Affordable Shipping for All Act
HR 380, the Affordable Shipping for All Act, prevents shipping companies (including the USPS) from charging higher fees to ship products to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, and other U.S. territories than to locations within the contiguous 48 states and DC. It requires shipping services to include all noncontiguous areas in their standard shipping policies and prohibits excluding these areas. The bill exempts high-value items over $10,000 from these requirements. This directly affects consumers and businesses in noncontiguous areas by ensuring they pay the same shipping rates as mainland customers for standard products.
