This bill requires the Postal Service to track and publicly report crashes involving mail-carrying vehicles that cause injury or death. Within 90 days of enactment, the Postmaster General must issue regulations requiring collection, tracking, and public reporting of that information, with mechanisms to monitor and enforce compliance. Postal employees and contractors of any tier who are transporting mail must report any crash involving injury or death within three days, using a standard form the Postmaster General must create, and must update the report as injuries or fatalities change. Reports must include the date, time, location, nature of the crash, the contractor's identity, injury and fatality counts, and contributing factors. The Postal Service must keep a continuously updated internal database of this information and publish an annual public report with aggregated statistics and trends, without personally identifying any individual. Contractors who miss the deadline face penalties that may include fines, contract suspension, or termination. The bill defines a reportable crash as one involving a commercial motor vehicle on a highway that causes a fatality, injury requiring immediate off-scene medical treatment, or disabling vehicle damage requiring a tow, and it excludes mere boarding, alighting, or cargo loading.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 1 organization named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 4 quarterly reports filed by 1 organization lobbying for itself in 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2 and 2025 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
The organization named: National Rural Letter Carriers' Association. Listed as filed. It is every client name on the filings counted here.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
