Nonprofits will likely be impacted by the United States Postal Service’s (“USPS”) proposed rulemaking for Marketing Mail. The USPS proposes limiting all Marketing Mail to paper-based or printed materials. All other types of Marketing Mail (e.g., clothing, address labels, pens) would be prohibited regardless of their value. Nonprofits commonly distribute such materials with fundraising correspondence. Comments on the proposal are due Monday, October 22.

More on this proposal is available on the Federal Register website.
