Puerto Rico Postal Equity Act of 2025

This bill would require the Postmaster General, within 180 days, to improve U.S. Postal Service systems so they better recognize and deliver to addresses in Puerto Rico. The Postal Service would use its existing delivery and complaint data to find locations with ongoing address or delivery problems and update its records for those places. It would also change its address matching, validation, and routing systems to support Spanish accent marks, tildes, and other address elements used in Puerto Rico. The Postal Service would consult with the Census Bureau, the Puerto Rico Planning Board, and local governments, and report to Congress each year for several years. No new money would be authorized; existing Postal Service funds would be used.
