US Postal Service Issues Rule on Federal Election Ballot Mail

The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has clarified its role in the upcoming federal election process by issuing a new rule concerning the handling of ballot mail. Postmaster General David Steiner stated that the regulation is consistent with the policies set forth in Executive Order 14399.
