This isn’t simply the story of a Postmaster General ratcheting up prices for the American people while degrading the Postal Service. This is the story of a former Republican National Committee finance chairman, whose family owns tens of millions of dollars in stock in a direct competitor of the USPS, who has abused his taxpayer-funded position to award the company his family is invested in with a $120 million USPS contract. This is the story of a Republican money man investigated by the FBI for perpetuating a straw donor scheme to benefit GOP candidates. This is the story of the American Postal Workers Union’s fight to stop DeJoy from decommissioning mail sorting facilities at the height of the 2020 election, and a federal judge’s ruling that DeJoy’s efforts impeded voting. Louis DeJoy lost my trust in his ability to run the USPS a long time ago, but he’s still Postmaster General as long as President Biden keeps the two open seats on the USPS Board of Governors without nominees — the only entity with the authority to remove Louis DeJoy.
Louis DeJoy shouldn’t continue to run the Postal Service in an election where Donald Trump, the guy who gave him the job and incited an insurrection when he lost, is running against the incumbent president. Thanks for raising your voice with me and calling for change. With love and gratitude, Cory |
