Postal Reorganization Act

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Postal Reorganization Act of 1970 abolished the United States Post Office Department, a part of the cabinet, and created the United States Postal Service, a corporation-like independent agency with an official monopoly on the delivery of mail in the United States.

The legislation was a direct outcome of the U.S. Postal Service strike of 1970.
