Postal Service proposes requiring states to provide mail-in ballot voter lists

25. Unsettling proposal and unsettling process.

I followed the link to read the proposed rule and submit comments. Submission of comments has always been through a webform that guided you through all the required parts of the comments including the docket number. Now they just have an email address to which we submit comments.

ADDRESSES:

Mail or deliver written comments to Director, Product Classification, U.S. Postal Service, 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW, Room 4446, Washington, DC 20260-5015. Email comments, containing the name and address of the commenter, may be sent to:

[e-mail],

with a subject line of “Ballot Mail.” Faxed comments will not be accepted.

You may inspect and photocopy all written comments, by appointment only, at USPS® Headquarters Library, 475 L'Enfant Plaza SW, 11th Floor North, Washington, DC 20260. These records are available for review Monday through Friday, between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. by calling 202-268-2906.

PUBLIC comments? Not so much. Can't see them unless in person. We can only photocopy them??


According to Regulations.gov, email only is NOT the normal process.

What would it take make the public record actually available TO THE PUBLIC? Volunteers going in and copying by hand? Uploading material to a website?
