Summary:

To assist Congress as it deliberates proposals to reform the U.S. Postal Service, this report provides information on Postal Service governance issues. GAO (1) identifies major areas of concern that current and former members of the Postal Service Board of Governors have about the board and legislative changes that they have suggested; (2) compares the major characteristics of the Postal Service's Board of Governors with the characteristics of boards of other government-created corporations or corporation-like organizations to identify similarities and dissimilarities--particularly as they relate to the major areas of concern identified by current and former Board members; and (3) provides additional information on governance issues that might be helpful as Congress debates Postal Service reform.
