Dingell Shares USPS Update, Salem Post Office to Remain Open

Congresswoman Debbie Dingell (MI-06) today shared a letter from the United States Postal Service (USPS) announcing the Salem Post Office will remain open.

“In this case, postal officials studied the Salem CPO for possible discontinuance and initially decided to terminate the CPO contract,” USPS writes. “However, after a more thorough review of the CPO contract, required changes to postal operations, and postal finances, Michigan 1 District Manager Richard Moreton has determined that the Salem CPO should remain open. I regret any stress or confusion the previous closure announcement has caused Salem residents, and I understand that the CPO supplier is pleased with the outcome.”

Dingell wrote to USPS in August requesting information about their plans to ensure Salem Township residents have full access to mail services and has been working closely with the Post Office on the issue.
