Team — Since Pat first sent this email a few weeks ago, a postal unit in Orange County, NY has seen a drastic change in postal services.

Bills are arriving late, friends and family are not receiving letters from loved ones, seniors are not receiving their medications, and neighbors have to travel long distances to receive their mail.

Pat is calling for Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to reopen the closed post office and restore high-quality service for the Hudson Valley and across the country.

If you agree with Pat that the USPS needs to be protected, please add your name alongside his.

Hi team — The United States Postal Service is a major lifeline for millions of Americans across the country, including right here in the Hudson Valley.

Whether it’s delivering medicine or Social Security checks for seniors, notes from family and friends across the country, or ballots in elections, the USPS is a vital service that must be protected.

You might have seen recent headlines in the Hudson Valley area about local post office branches closing down. Truth be told, since President Trump appointed Louis DeJoy as Postmaster General, the USPS has been roiled with issues. From budget cuts and price increases to delayed delivery of at-home ballots in the 2020 election, the USPS has faced challenges under DeJoy’s leadership — and we're stepping up to fix it.

I’m proud to be working with labor leaders and local elected officials to protect the postal service and make sure every person receives their mail on time, and at an affordable price.

If you’re with me in the fight to protect and expand our postal service, add your name alongside mine to show you prioritize safeguarding the USPS.

Yours in service,
