The United States Postal Service (USPS) is under attack from within as Postmaster General Louis DeJoy pushes a controversial 10-year plan that threatens to undermine the integrity of our elections.
DeJoy's proposed reforms, which include job cuts, sorting center closures, and the potential privatization of the USPS, have already led to significant mail delays in regions across the country.
Senators Gary Peters, Jacky Rosen, and Catherine Cortez-Masto have highlighted the risks associated with the USPS's network changes, while Senator Bernie Sanders and 20 other Senators have warned about the potential delays caused by relocating mail processing to distant regional facilities.
Alarmingly, DeJoy has failed to announce any specific safeguards to protect vote by mail, despite the mounting concerns voiced by Senators from both sides of the aisle.
Tell the USPS Inspector General, USPS Board of Governors, and the Postal Regulatory Commission to step in, stop Louis DeJoy, and protect vote by mail immediately.
We have a responsibility to defend our democratic principles and protect the integrity of our elections. We must demand that our elected officials and the relevant oversight bodies take swift action to:
Require Postmaster General DeJoy to present a comprehensive plan that guarantees the timely delivery of election mail and mail-in ballots.
Secure increased funding and resources for the USPS to maintain its efficiency and reliability.
Pass legislation that safeguards the right to vote by mail and ensures equal access to this essential service for all Americans, regardless of their location or socioeconomic status.
As we approach the 2024 election, we must remain vigilant and united in our efforts to safeguard this crucial voting method from the reckless reforms proposed by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.
Sign on to call for transparency, accountability, and immediate action from the USPS Inspector General, the USPS Board of Governors, and the Postal Regulatory Commission.
Together, we can ensure that the integrity of our elections remains uncompromised.
