Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would let a business or person that runs a contract postal unit keep operating it if the U.S. Postal Service decides to end or not renew the contract, as long as the decision was not mainly based on the contractor breaking the agreement. The contractor would need to notify the Postal Service and agree to amended terms. The agreement would keep its prior terms, but the Postal Service would not have to pay the contractor unless the Postmaster General decides payments are appropriate. The continued agreement would last until the Postal Service ends it for a breach or the contractor ends it or permanently stops operating the unit.
