USPS Cutting Saturday Mail

Saturday mail delivery is officially going to end, as the United State Postal Services continues to try and find ways to cut into it's nearly sixteen billion dollar deficit.

The change will begin in August, and would not see an end in parcel deliveries.

They figure they could save thousands of work hours,
 without laying off a single person.

This is the first year in which the USPS could have attempted this move.

Previously congressional appropriations bills have blocked the USPS from ending the six day delivery schedule, but Congresses own stop gap funding measures have left the postal service with a little more autonomy.

Noting the autonomy, the USPS jumped at the opportunity, which could still be stopped by Congress, but isn't likely to be.
