The resolution urges the Postmaster General of the United States Postal Service (USPS) to enhance mail processing across North Dakota to address ongoing delivery issues. It highlights the critical role the USPS plays in ensuring timely mail delivery for individuals and businesses, particularly in rural areas where residents depend on the mail for essential goods and services. The resolution emphasizes the importance of reliable mail delivery for small businesses, legal processes, and the dissemination of important public notices, which are often communicated through local newspapers.
Furthermore, the resolution points out that late and inconsistent mail delivery disrupts the state's business community and that challenges in obtaining timely information from the USPS contribute to a lack of transparency and customer satisfaction. It calls for the implementation of standardized communication procedures and timely updates regarding service disruptions to improve public trust in the postal system. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to send copies to the Postmaster General and North Dakota's Congressional Delegation, advocating for necessary improvements in mail processing and communication.
