SUMMARY: Mail theft is increasing, with criminals targeting mail carriers to steal master arrow keys, which open all mailboxes in a zip code. These keys grant access to mail containing sensitive personal information, enabling identity theft. Incidents caught on camera show thieves attacking carriers not for mail, but for these valuable keys. Victims report stolen IDs from their mail used to open credit cards and bank accounts. Some criminals sell the keys on the dark web, spreading the threat. In Florida, suspects used a stolen key to steal 200 pounds of mail for a shopping spree. Postal inspectors are intensifying efforts to combat these crimes.

The 1,116-page package also includes provisions on energy, higher education, and food aid.

The bill is expected to pass before the July 4th deadline.
