Two Hudson Valley lawmakers want postal officials to pause changes
Mid-Hudson News reports that the post office has a new sorting and delivery structure for mail scheduled to start this fall, and two Hudson Valley state Senators are not happy about it. Democrat Michelle Hinchey and Republican Rob Rolison sent a letter to the post office saying that the proposed changes, “which include potentially closing numerous local post offices across the Hudson Valley and converting them to sorting and delivery centers, will be detrimental to our region.” The lawmakers claim that with “fewer facilities and less staff, rural families will suffer.” The story says that Hinchey and Rolison want the post office to pause the changes, but does not include a comment from postal officials.
