A new report from The New York Times has shed light on the mounting consequences of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s 10-year plan for the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) — a plan that has led to slower mail delivery, higher costs for consumers, and a staggering $6 billion deficit. Amid growing concern over DeJoy’s management of the USPS, U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff has taken a stand, pressing DeJoy to “fully resolve disastrous performance failures” after significant mail delays in the Atlanta area. However, DeJoy’s dismissive response has raised further alarm, as he brazenly admitted to having “grown numb to criticism.”
Urgent Congressional Action Needed to Halt DeJoy’s Plan
DeJoy’s proposed reforms have already caused noticeable disruptions in mail service, and his latest proposals target rural communities, reducing their access to essential postal services even further. With the 2024 election year fast approaching, concerns are escalating, particularly as DeJoy faced scrutiny for mail delays during the 2020 election.
Senator Ossoff, backed by a bipartisan coalition of 26 U.S. Senators, is calling for immediate action to halt DeJoy’s disastrous 10-year plan. However, much more needs to be done. The public is now calling on every member of Congress — both Democrats and Republicans — to speak out and put an end to DeJoy’s damaging policies.
Take Action: Sign the Petition to Protect the USPS
The time to act is now. Americans are encouraged to sign the petition demanding that Congress pressure the USPS Board of Governors to put a stop to DeJoy’s harmful 10-year plan. Our postal service cannot be saved by cutting services, raising prices, and letting delivery standards fall further. Members of Congress must stand up and ensure that the USPS remains a reliable, affordable public service for all.
