From eNAPUS Legislative& Political Bulletin

On Wednesday, at a Senate subcommittee hearing that was abbreviated by a small fire in one of the Senate office buildings, NAPUS and other postal employee groups discussed the implementation of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, PL 109-435. Speaking on behalf of the 40,500 members of NAPUS, President Goff focused his comments on the necessity of training and adequate resources for the Postal Service to adjust to the operational and financial challenges required under the new law. Dale indicated that NAPUS and the USPS are currently discussing these issues; however, staffing deficiencies continue to plague the system.
