## Summary

**Establishes a binding, time‑bound process to set pay and benefits for Postal Service supervisors, managers, and postmasters.** It would require faster written proposals and give a neutral panel authority to make quick, final decisions. - Supervisors, managers, and postmasters would receive written USPS proposals at least 60 days before a pay decision expires and within 60 days after any bargaining agreement that affects their pay or benefits. - USPS would follow a two-stage proposal process and must strive to resolve differences with the supervisors' and postmasters' organizations under existing negotiation procedures. - A dispute-resolution panel would have to issue a final, binding determination no more than 15 days after making its recommendation and considering input from the Postal Service and the affected organizations.
