Return to Sender: Amid National Outcry, Trump's Postmaster General Drops Plans to Gut USPS — For Now
by mail@democracynow.org (Democracy Now!) from Democracy Now! on (#572ZJ)
After massive public outcry against cuts to mail service ahead of November's election, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has announced he will suspend changes to the U.S. Postal Service until after the election, when a record number of voters are expected to cast ballots by mail. President Trump has admitted he's working to undermine the USPS in order to make it harder to vote by mail in November. We speak with Lisa Graves, executive director of the policy research group True North Research, who says Louis DeJoy is the most partisan person, in 100 years at least, to head the Postal Service" and warns that U.S. democracy is at stake. We need to really hold this Postal Service accountable."
