Here in Ohio we have SB5.

Hope & Change: Even Government-Run Agencies Are Going Out of Business

“We will be insolvent next month due to significant declines in mail volume and retiree health benefit pre-funding costs imposed by Congress.”

Now witness the unions fighting to stop the layoffs knowing full well what will happen. This kind of thing is happening across the country, not just with the USPS. States are being forced to take action. Wisconsin being the most publicized. Here in Ohio we have SB5. 

A decrease in revenue and the public sector union's refusal to help by cutting the burden they place on the state... It's very simple really.
