Hi,
We need Congress to say, loud and clear: It’s time to fire Louis DeJoy.
As the Trump-appointed head of the USPS, DeJoy launched a disastrous plan
to privatize the post office.^1 Significant regional mail delays have
become commonplace, like earlier this year in metro Atlanta.^2 Prices have
gone up for consumers a handful of times during DeJoy’s reign. It’s
unacceptable!
Finally, a bipartisan coalition of 26 U.S. Senators is raising the alarm
about the complete dysfunction of DeJoy’s plan^3 – and more lawmakers are
calling for his removal. Now, we need all of our members of Congress to
advocate for the USPS Board of Governors to remove Trump appointee Louis
DeJoy.

USPS Board of Governors fire Louis DeJoy now!

The USPS Board of Governors has the power to fire DeJoy, and our members
of Congress have the power to make it overwhelmingly clear to the Board
that the American people are fed up with DeJoy’s privatization efforts.
This is not a partisan issue. Constituents of Democrats and Republicans
are complaining about mail delays AND lost mail. In an election year, when
tens of millions of people will rely on the mail for voting, widespread
delays and lost mail are unacceptable.
Every step of the way, DeJoy has defended his plan. He has defended price
increases making it harder for consumers to mail packages to their loved
ones. He has defended cutting workers’ hours and decreasing service
especially to rural areas. Our lawmakers must step up and pressure the
USPS to halt DeJoy’s privatization plans and remove the man in charge.
