,reform  ,,resolution  ,expressing the  
sense of the ,house of ,representatives 
that the ,united ,states postal facility

value and the ,united ,states ,postal   
,service should take appropriate        
measures to maintain1 modernize and     
fully utilize the existing post office

the postal facility network is an       
integral part of universal service and  
should be modernized to make universal  
service relevant for the #bast century2

rural communities would create an       
economic burden for people in the       
,united ,states that depend on universal
 service for communication1 package     
services1 and non-typical postal        

services2 ,whereas the closure process  
of post offices does not adequately take
 into account community input2 ,whereas 
post offices are recognized as secure   
and trustworthy1 and could function as  
the location for other government       
services1 community events1 and         
emergency services2 and ,whereas post   
offices have become a part of the       
identity of rural communities1 and      
provide a significant social value3
