As the USPS OIG stated in a report released this past March, while it is a welcome step, the Postal Service still does not have a single written policy requiring the tracking of trucking contractor accidents and fatalities. The OIG's number one recommendation was that the Postal Service fix this serious safety oversight immediately, and that is what we are doing today. Our legislation would codify the number one recommendation of the OIG, to begin to improve USPS freight trucking safety and provide accountability. This bill will maintain an internal database, and I hope it will lead to reforms by the Postal Service and save lives. {time} 1645
