To require the United States Postal Service to notify postal customers and relevant officials when operations are temporarily suspended at a post office, and for other purposes.

H.R. 3958 would require the United States Postal Service (USPS) to proactively notify postal customers and specified officials whenever a post office temporarily suspends operations, whether the suspension is voluntary or involuntary. The bill mandates detailed notices, opportunities for public comment, and interim replacement services in the local area. It also requires regular status updates for long suspensions and a reopening notice when operations resume (including the new location if the post office has relocated). Notices must be distributed through multiple channels (mail, in-person posting, USPS website, social media, and email to relevant officials). The measure defines “relevant officials” broadly to include congressional representatives for the area and local government heads. The act would apply only to suspensions that begin after enactment. It also provides an exception where suspensions relate to health or safety concerns or situations outside USPS discretion, where the notice requirement would not apply.
