Elizabeth Warren Pushes Post Office Banking

“If the Postal Service offered basic banking services — nothing fancy, just basic bill paying, check cashing and small dollar loans — then it could provide affordable financial services for underserved families and, at the same time, shore up its own financial footing,” Warren said in a recent statement, according to Firedoglake.

Warren cited a recent report from Postal Service’s Office of the Inspector General that stated the service could offer assistance to underbanked consumers in the United States.
