MarketingMatters — At a Glance: We Deliver Your Tax Dollars, We Don't Spend Them!
April 15 — Tax Day — is almost here. While you might not feel like celebrating this particular date on the calendar, we hope you will take some comfort in the fact that the Postal Service™ is here to deliver your tax dollars — not spend them.
Postal Service operations are financed solely by the sale of its products and services. The only government funds the Postal Service receives are reimbursements by Congress to provide free mail for the blind and to keep certain postage prices for nonprofit and other qualifying organizations below cost.
So when you finish filling out your tax forms this year and make your payment to the United States Treasury, remember: The Postal Service is here to deliver your tax dollars, not spend them.
And if you’re fortunate enough to be owed a tax refund, the Postal Service can also deliver that to you — putting tax dollars into your pocket, not taking them out of it!
