Postal Service: Many Challenges in a Changing Environment (Testimony,
02/23/95, GAO/T-GGD-95-93).

Major changes to the Postal Service could affect the quality, the price,
and the availability of mail service as well as the work of more than
850,000 employees.  In that context, Congress needs comprehensive and
accurate information on postal operations in order to carefully consider
what changes should be made to improve this important service.  This
testimony (1) provides an overview of the key characteristics of today's
Postal Service and (2) discusses challenges facing the Postal Service
and Congress as they consider how mail delivery will be provided in the
future.
