SENATE BILL: The Duke-Marokai Postal Service Act of 2013 (Law'd)

[Barnes]

Is there going to be any relief from the 2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act which forces the Postal Service to prepay employees' retirement pensions? 

I was under the impression that this bill wasn't law in Atlasia; if it is, I'm in favor of relaxing its requirements.

It isn't; US law only goes up to 2004 (when the game began).

Barnes, I'm on board with everything in your amendment other than retaining Saturday delivery. What is the case for saving it?

I simply think its a very convenient service that has already been cut back in times past (I assume we do have shorter service hours on Saturday?).  My amendment would simply allow the Postal Service a way to create an alternative to the idea of shutting the service down completely.

[Barnes]

As your amendment authorizes the APS to phase out Saturday delivery based on the results of the CIO's report, I deem it friendly.

[Barnes]

Aye. 

My amendment simply gives Saturday delivery a chance, and if it is found to indeed be as needless as some have said, it will swiftly be eliminated.
