"USPS Announces Price Hike for Stamps"
Starting next week, the cost of USPS postage will increase, with a Forever Stamp rising to 68 cents. This is part of a series of price hikes that have collectively raised postage costs by nearly 24% since the pandemic. The United States Postal Service is implementing these increases to keep up with inflation and the growing cost of doing business, as part of the Delivering for America 10-year plan proposed by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy in 2021. Despite the hikes, the USPS maintains that its prices remain among the most affordable in the world.
