Government Executive reports:
"Because such a large portion of the
FEHBP pool would be leaving under the
Postal Service's plan, many of the

policy analysis director, told a House
committee last month that 23 plans
that are a part of the federal program
have at least 50 percent postal
workers or retirees." -

Postal loss may lead to 'extreme
action', Donahoe says
5.10.2013 -
The Detroit News reports: "Donahoe
said that without legislation to
change the service's business model,
mounting losses will necessitate
heeding the postal board's call to ask
labor unions to reopen contracts and
to consider raising postal rates. "At
some point our financial liabilities
become so large that they cannot be
fixed without taking extreme action,"
Donahoe said Friday at a board meeting
in Washington." -

"would entail a number of risks,"
Jeffrey Bucholtz, a partner with King

federal law would likely supply cause
for the President to remove the
Governors." -
