Postal Processing Protection Act
This bill (S 661) amends existing law to expand legal protections for postal facilities. It replaces the term "post office" throughout Section 404(d) with a broader definition covering "any acceptance, processing, shipping, delivery, distribution, or other facility owned or operated by the Postal Service that supports one or more post offices." This directly affects mail processing centers, distribution hubs, and other support facilities operated by the U.S. Postal Service. The key change ensures these supporting facilities receive the same legal protections previously applied only to traditional post offices.
