Celebrating the USPS!

The United States Postal Service is the lifeblood of America and especially rural America.

Each day, Post Office delivers more than 470 million pieces of mail and people rely on the USPS for voting, prescriptions, bills, letters, gifts and much, much more.

During the pandemic, the USPS has begun to struggle more and more, so to honor our postal workers, we decided to publish a series of stories taking a look at the history of the USPS and the impact it has had on our country.

RFD-TV is celebrating the United States Postal Service.
