Post Office Consolidation Act of 1872
The Post Office Consolidation Act of 1872, formally entitled as the Act to revise, consolidate, and amend the Statutes relating to the Post-office Department (17 Stat. 283, enacted June 8, 1872) consolidated the United States Post Office Department into the Cabinet of the United States. It is most notable for a rider enacted under section 148; this was the first provision in what later became known as the Comstock Act of 1873.[1][2]
