Noem against postal plan due to rural concerns

South Dakota Congresswoman Kristi Noem says she does not support the US Postal Service’s plan to cut back mail delivery on Saturdays. With South Dakota being a rural state, she says the postal service should review all available options before making decisions that “affect South Dakotans and the rest of rural America.” The proposal would still have packages delivered on Saturdays, just not regular letters and mail.

Noem says she understands the postal service has to take steps to be financially viable but its service is “critical to the way families and businesses operate.”
