Craig\u2019s bill would require USPS to notify customers of undelivered and partially delivered routes by zip code, keeping Minnesotans informed of when they can expect their mail to be delivered or delayed.\n\nAs Minnesotans continue to experience slow delivery, additional public reporting would help increase transparency and accountability for sub-par service from USPS.\n\n\u201cFor months, my constituents have been left wondering when their mail \u2013 their prescription medications, notes from loved ones, small business checks \u2013 will be delivered. This bill will help Minnesotans get timely and accurate information when it comes to their mail delivery, and will help hold USPS accountable for poor delivery service. I\u2019ll keep working to improve postal service here in the South Metro,\u201d said Rep. Craig.\n\nBill text can be found here.\n\nThis bill is part of Rep. Craig\u2019s push to improve mail delivery in the South Metro.\n\nMost recently, she renewed her call to USPS Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to consider opening a joint Lakeville/Farmington Post Office to help improve mail service in two of Minnesota\u2019s fastest growing cities.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:49:26Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://craig.house.gov/media/press-releases/amid-continued-slow-mail-service-rep-angie-craig-introduces-bill-increase-usps"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.4991769567131996, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
