This pending rate increase is in addition to the 1.5% rate increase that took effect on January 24, 2021. If the pending increase is approved, it would result in a substantial increase in annual expenses to Special Olympics to maintain current mail volumes. To cover the increase, Special Olympics would need to make cuts in other areas, which would potentially result in an immediate reduction of services.
