Hi,
In an election year where tens of millions of Americans will vote by mail,
Trump-appointed head of the USPS, Louis DeJoy, has no answers for the
massive mail delays in Atlanta.
DeJoy had no answers when Senator Jon Ossoff asked why his constituents in
Atlanta were facing delays and lost mail.^1 DeJoy had no answers when
Senator Gary Peters expressed concerns that DeJoy’s 10-year privatization
plan would cause "delayed delivery of election mail."^2
DeJoy has no answers during a critical election year to ensure that
election mail is delivered on-time. The USPS Inspector General and USPS
Board of Governors must step in and ensure there are safeguards for mail
voting this year!

DeJoy was hauled in front of the U.S. Senate recently to answer for the
complete mess at the Post Office. He’s overseeing higher prices (up 45%
under DeJoy!) and massive, unexplained mail delays.
Even Republicans are complaining about DeJoy — as constituents struggle
with ongoing mail service issues and promised post offices in rural areas
go unfinished.^3
Now is a critical time for answers, because nearly HALF of all votes cast
in 2020 were votes by mail. It would be a disaster if the people in charge
of the USPS alongside DeJoy — the USPS Inspector General and Board of
Governors — allowed a Trump appointee to create a mess for election mail
in November.

protect mail voting!
Thanks for taking action,
Joey and the team at Demand Progress
