Historically Linn’s Stamp News has had varying coverage of postal news from around the world.

The Postal Regulatory Commission has to approve the new rates before they can be implemented.

The United States Postal Service board of governors stating its support of the administration’s decision to move to self-declared rates was the most read Linn's story this week.

Following the Jan. 27 United States postage rate change, the postage values of most rate-specific U.S. stamps are evenly divisible by 5¢.

In a statement published Dec. 4, USPS acknowledged the release on that day of the lengthy report from the Trump administration’s Task Force on the United States Postal System.

The Task Force on the United States Postal System created last April at the behest of President Donald J. Trump publicly released its report to the president on Dec. 4.

President Donald J. Trump has called on Americans to observe Dec. 5 as a national day of mourning for President George H.W. Bush.

The Postal Regulatory Commission's approval of the USPS's rate change request was understandably our top story over the past week.
