AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

USPS Pressure: A new report says “neither snow nor rain” still can’t fix USPS’s bigger financial and service problems, even as Americans rely on the mail to reach remote places. ASPA Rates: American Samoa Power Authority announced a fuel surcharge jump that will lift residential electricity from 38¢/kWh in April to 46¢/kWh in May, with commercial rates also moving. Shipping Drug Case: Samoa Police say investigations into seven former Samoa Shipping Corporation sailors are ongoing and all are expected to face drug charges tied to alleged meth smuggling. Opioid Money: Delaware’s Purdue Pharma settlement is now legally effective, continuing the nationwide flow of funds tied to the opioid crisis. Deep-Sea Mining Pushback: In American Samoa, local groups are circulating a community letter to the Fono urging stronger safeguards as the Governor sets up a Deep-Sea Minerals Steering Committee and residents demand meaningful outreach. Labor Rules: The U.S. Department of Labor rescinded the Biden-era overtime rule, restoring the 2019 salary threshold approach.
