A BILL 
To require door delivery of mail sent to persons residing

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. DOOR DELIVERY OF MAIL REQUIRED FOR INDI-
VIDUALS 
RESIDING 
IN 
SENIOR 
COMMU-
NITIES. 
(a) IN GENERAL.—The United States Postal Service 
shall take such measures as may be necessary to ensure 
that all individuals residing in senior communities shall 
receive their mail through door delivery service.
(b) SENIOR COMMUNITY DEFINED.—As used in this 
section, the term ‘‘senior community’’ means a housing fa-
cility or community which is intended and operated for 
occupancy by individuals 55 years of age or older, and at 
least 80 percent of the occupied units of which are occu-
pied by at least one individual who is 55 years of age or

(1) Each year, 3,000,000 pregnancies, or one 
half of all pregnancies, in the United States are un-
intended, and half of all of these unintended preg-
nancies end in abortion. 
(2) The Food and Drug Administration has de-
clared emergency contraception to be safe and effec-
tive in preventing unintended pregnancy. 
(3) The most commonly used forms of emer-
gency contraception are regimens of ordinary birth 
control pills. Taken within 72 hours of unprotected 
intercourse or contraceptive failure, emergency con-
traception can reduce the risk of pregnancy by as 
much as 89 percent. Recent medical evidence con-
firms that emergency contraception can be effective 
up to five days after unprotected intercourse or con-
traception failure. 
(4) Emergency contraception, also known as 
post-coital contraception, is a responsible means of 
preventing pregnancy that works like other hormonal 
contraception to delay ovulation, prevent fertilization 
or prevent implantation. 
(5) Emergency contraception does not cause 
abortion and will not affect an established preg-
nancy.
