To require the United States Postal Service to notify postal customers and relevant officials when operations are temporarily suspended at a post office, and for other purposes.

# HR 3958 Summary **What the Bill Does:** HR 3958 would require the U.S. Postal Service to notify customers and local officials when a post office temporarily closes or stops operations. The bill aims to ensure that people who rely on postal services are informed in advance when their local post office won't be operating, rather than discovering a closure when they arrive at the facility. **Who It Affects:** This bill would primarily affect postal customers and communities that depend on local post offices for mail services.

Local government officials would also be notified of closures, allowing them to potentially plan responses or communicate with constituents about service disruptions. **Current Status:** The bill was introduced by Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) and is currently in committee, meaning it has not yet been voted on by the full House. The specific details of what "for other purposes" includes are not provided in the bill summary.
