The MAILS Act requires the U.S. Postal Service to improve its communication with local communities when relocating or temporarily closing postal facilities. Specifically, the legislation mandates that the Postal Service establish a formal process allowing local officials to request new post offices, notify elected officials and the public at least 15-30 days before temporary relocations, and collect community input before implementing any temporary closure lasting longer than two days. The law applies to all types of post offices, including remotely managed and part-time facilities. For any temporary relocation exceeding 180 days, the Postal Service must report to Congress and affected lawmakers within 30 days, explaining whether communication requirements were met and detailing any extensions. The bill contains no specific funding allocations but requires regulatory changes to existing postal service rules within 90 days of enactment.
