Bill McKibben writes about how vital the USPS, especially to rural Americans, in the New Yorker:
You know who delivers the Amazon package the final mile to rural Americans? The U.S.P.S.
You know how people get medicine, when the pharmacy is an hour’s drive away? In their mailbox.
You know why many people can’t pay their bills electronically? Because too much of rural America has impossibly slow Internet, or none at all.
These are the places where, during the pandemic, teachers and students all sit in cars in the school parking lot to Zoom with one another, because that’s the only spot with high-speed Wi-Fi.
Republicans claim to support rural areas. But House voted NO on saving the USPS. They stand with Donald Trump as the USPS teeters on the edge of collapse.
That’s why we’re supporting 5 progressives running to represent rural areas in the House that will SAVE the USPS. Audrey Denney (CA-01), J.D. Scholten (IA-04), Patricia Ackerman (NV-02), Dana Balter (NY-24), and Kara Eastman (NE-02) need your help.
Thanks for standing up.
