Summary
This bill proposes an amendment to section 3001 of title 39, United States Code , to enhance transparency for mail recipients regarding solicitations. Its primary purpose is to mandate that all mail matter constituting a solicitation for goods or services must be clearly and conspicuously identified. The legislation requires such mail to bear a notice, like " This is a solicitation ," on its face. This notice must be in conspicuous and legible type, contrasting with other printing, and adhere to regulations prescribed by the Postal Service . Failure to comply will render the mail nonmailable and subject to disposal by the Postal Service, with existing exceptions still applicable.
