The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) will not raise prices for market-dominant products, including first-class mail, through the first half of next year.
Postmaster General David Steiner announced the decision on Set. 24 after the USPS Board of Governors accepted his recommendation for a price freeze. As a result, the price of a stamp to mail a one-ounce, single-piece first-class letter will stay unchanged at $0.78 until mid-2026.
