Summary

This bill authorizes funding and directs actions to improve security for U.S. Postal Service letter carriers and mail. It provides $1.4 billion per year from 2025 to 2029 for high-security collection boxes and electronic mailbox keys. It requires the Attorney General to appoint a prosecutor in each judicial district to coordinate cases of mail theft, robbery, or assault on postal employees. It also directs the U.S. Sentencing Commission to update sentencing guidelines so that assault or robbery of a postal employee is treated like assault of a law enforcement officer.
