This bill directs the U.S. Postal Service to submit a detailed report to Congress within 60 days examining mail and package delivery performance in the St. Louis region for fiscal years 2023 through 2025. The legislation responds to recent audits by the Postal Service's Office of Inspector General that found the Kansas-Missouri District ranked among the worst-performing postal districts in the nation, with over 89,000 pieces of delayed mail identified on a single day in June 2025, many of which went unreported in the postal service's tracking systems. The required report must compare St. Louis delivery performance against national averages and similar districts, analyze workforce problems including high staff turnover and vacancy rates, assess the accuracy of delayed mail reporting, and detail the status of corrective actions taken in response to the inspector general's findings. The bill also requires the Postmaster General to describe management accountability systems in place to prevent future operational failures, including performance metrics, reporting accuracy verification procedures, and strategies to address staffing shortages in the St. Louis region. The legislation has no specific funding attached and does not establish new permanent requirements beyond the one-time reporting obligation.
