🦙💌 Maybe USPS should get an alpaca mascot? 🤔
Hey guys, USPS needs our help. So many people depend on this service for their essential needs such as medication and social security checks. In addition, many small businesses rely on USPS to deliver their goods across the nation and across the globe. USPS is also crucial to our mail in voting system, and during this pandemic, we need them now more than ever for the upcoming election. Their funds are running out and the government is not doing anything to bail them out.
Here’s what you can do to help:
1. Buy stamps or merchandise from the USPS online store! Send snail mail to friends for only one 55 cent stamp.
2. Text USPS to 50409. A bot will guide you through steps to sign a letter to your govt. officials. I did this and it was super easy!
3. Buy from American small businesses who likely depend on USPS to deliver orders! People outside of the US can do this too. I know shipping can be a bit expensive, but some things like stickers are more affordable — if you buy only stickers from my Etsy shop for example, I will send it in a stamped envelope for only $1.20 internationally! And for domestic orders, a stamp is only 55 cents.
Also, US citizens please register to vote! If you are voting by mail, fill out your ballot and send it as soon as you get it since there are expected delays.
