BURLINGTON, Vt. — U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders has proposed legislation to impose a two-year ban on the U.S. Postal Service's plan to cut up to 15,000 jobs, close more mail-sorting plants and stop overnight delivery of first-class mail and periodicals.

Sanders, an independent, filed the proposal Friday as an amendment to a bill pending in the full Senate.

Sanders said the Postal Service has closed 141 mail-processing plants since 2012 and wants to close as many as 82 facilities. He says unless Congress acts, the cuts could affect thousands of workers in 37 states.

His proposal was co-sponsored by Sen. Patrick Leahy and other Democratic senators from Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, Oregon and Wisconsin.
