A recent US Supreme Court decision has blocked a proposed US Postal Service rule from taking effect before the midterm elections. This decision preserves current procedures.
The impact of this decision is being felt, with Travis County citing a specific cost associated with the blocked rule. The county mentions a $21K envelope cost.
Further details about the blocked rule and its implications are available from the source. The Supreme Court's decision ensures that current procedures will remain in place for the time being, at least until the midterm elections have concluded.
