I have a problem with the increase...like it will mean anything...

I know many retirees from the USPO, and their retirement packages are HUGE compared to those of us that work in other areas in the economy. Let's even out the playing field and make them start to cut back, or justify what they have...

I know what I have to compete against... no competition there though!!!

Interestingly a complete read of the proposal shows no increase
for international mail (Canada, Mexico, or the rest of the world).

WASHINGTON - The cost of mailing a letter will go
up on May 14, but you'll be able to lock in that
price ­ no matter how rates rise in the future ­
by buying the new "forever" stamp.

The post office governing board agreed Monday to
accept the new 41-cent rate for first class mail
recommended in February by the independent Postal Regulatory
Commission.

The board also agreed to the proposal for a
"forever stamp," that will always be valid for
mailing a letter no matter how much rates increase.

James C. Miller III, chairman of the postal
board, said the forever stamp could go on sale as
soon as next month, at the 41-cent rate.

The rates taking effect May 14 include:

. Letters, bill payments, greeting cards: 41
cents for the first ounce, up from 39 cents.

. Wedding invitation (2-ounces), 58 cents, down from 63 cents.

. Postcard, 26 cents, up from 24 cents.

. Priority mail flat-rate envelope, $4.60, up from $4.05.

. Express Mail flat-rate envelope, $16.25, up from $14.40.

. Parcel Post, 1-pound package, $4.50, up from 3.95.

. Bank statement, 2 ounces, presorted, 45.9 cents, down from
54.4 cents.

. Utility bill, barcoded, 31.2 cents, up from 29.3 cents.

Try this link:

If the above is approved, International Mail to almost all countries will go to 90 cents per ounce, and IRC's will go to $2.00 each. The requested date
for the change is May 14, same as the domestic rate increase.
