Postmaster general waves red flag as Senate puts foot down on giving USPS more money: ‘We are out of cash’

Postmaster General David Steiner has urgently warned that the U.S. Postal Service is on the brink of running out of cash by the end of 2026 unless the Senate provides financial aid. Despite his pleas, the Senate has been reluctant to extend additional funds, highlighting a contentious debate over fiscal responsibility and support for the nation's postal service. This standoff underscores the broader implications for postal operations and the potential disruptions to millions of Americans who rely on the USPS for essential services.
