The Direct Marketing Association Nonprofit Federation is asking the U.S Postal Service to delay the implementation of regulations that would more than double the postage for many nonprofit mail pieces.

In its formal comments field with the agency, the DMANF expressed serious concerns that the proposed regulations will dramatically increase postage costs for nonprofit mailers by pushing pieces that currently qualify as automation rate flats (as well as some letter mail that exceeds 3.5 ounces) into the significantly higher priced not flat-machinable and parcel rate categories."
