“I’ll keep fighting for these policies until they become law so everyone in our region can send, receive and deliver mail securely and without delay.”

Aguilar says he will continue pushing the mail-theft response and mail-carrier protection policies until they are enacted.

Rep. Aguilar said he was "working to pass legislation to better protect victims of mail theft and strengthen protections for mail carriers." The post says he secured bipartisan changes in the FY2027 Financial Services and General Government funding bill urging USPS to respond to mailbox theft and vandalism more quickly and notify victims sooner. It also says he is a co-sponsor of the bipartisan Protect Our Letter Carriers Act and concludes: "I’ll keep fighting for these policies until they become law."

Direct contemporaneous evidence that Aguilar was actively pursuing both faster mail-theft response policies and stronger protections for mail carriers, but it shows advocacy and appropriations pressure rather than enactment.

Congress.gov shows H.R. 1065 was introduced on 2025-02-06 and its latest action is referral to the Committee on the Judiciary and the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. The tracker status remains "Introduced."

The legislation Aguilar cited as a vehicle for stronger carrier protections had not become law and, as of the latest official bill record surfaced here, had not advanced beyond introduction/referral.

The House Subcommittee on Government Operations held a hearing titled "An Update on Mail Theft and Crime," reflecting continued congressional attention to mail theft and postal crime during the 119th Congress.

Official committee activity confirms the issue remained under active congressional consideration, but this hearing record does not show that Aguilar’s specific policy promises were enacted.

Congress.gov currently shows H.R. 1065 as introduced and still referred to House committees, with no later legislative action listed. The bill summary says it would direct DOJ coordination on postal crimes, require sentencing-guideline changes for assaults on postal employees, and authorize USPS security upgrades such as high-security collection boxes and electronic mailbox keys. Pete Aguilar appears in the cosponsor list.

Official legislative record shows Aguilar-backed carrier-protection legislation exists, but it has not advanced beyond introduction, so the promised policies have not become law.

USPIS says Project Safe Delivery is its ongoing effort to combat mail theft and violent crimes against postal employees. The page reports 3,654 mail-theft arrests and 545 robberies through March 31, 2026, and says the strategy includes high-security collection boxes, electronic locks, arrow-key accountability reviews, security reviews, public awareness, and law-enforcement surges.

The federal postal law-enforcement response remains active, but it is agency action rather than enactment of Aguilar's promised policies, so it does not show the pledge has been fulfilled.
