[ [link removed] ]Biden must fill empty seats on the USPS Board of Governors so they can
vote out DeJoy! Sign now >>

People For Member,

The U.S. Postal Service has never been in greater peril than it is under
its current leadership. Donald Trump may now be out of office, but his
crony, Louis DeJoy, is still the Postmaster General. And DeJoy seems
intent on harming the U.S. Postal Service as much as possible in the midst
of a once-in-a-century pandemic. President Biden has a unique opportunity
to prevent further harm from being visited upon the Postal Service and
those it serves by filling all the vacant seats currently on the Postal
Service’s governing board.

DeJoy has been called to testify before a House of Representatives panel
next week in advance of rolling out his new ‘strategic vision’ for the
Postal Service, and we need to raise as much awareness about his terrible
leadership before he takes the stand.

[ [link removed] ]Sign now to urge President Biden to fill ALL of the vacancies on the
USPS Board of Governors and give them enough votes to fire DeJoy! >>

Once the new governors are confirmed by the Senate, there will be enough
Democratic votes on the board to both finally oust DeJoy as Postmaster
General and enable the agency’s leadership to make the service
improvements the Postal Service sorely needs.

Only 38 percent of mail was delivered on time at the end of 2020, after
DeJoy’s changes had been roiling the battered agency for a good part of
the year. And this month, two people briefed on DeJoy’s “strategic vision”
have revealed that he intends to ban air transport for first-class mail at
a time when successful delivery rates are already historically low.^[1]
For DeJoy to implement changes that will slow mail service in the midst of
a pandemic – during which receiving medications and paying bills by mail
have continued to be a lifeline for millions of Americans – could be
catastrophic.

[ [link removed] ]Help us get enough votes to remove DeJoy by urging President Biden to
fill the USPS Board’s vacant seats! >>

It’s imperative that we save the Postal Service, one of our country’s most
relied-upon and beloved institutions. To do that, we need your help in the
lead-up to DeJoy’s record of incompetence being on full display at next
week’s House hearing.

[ [link removed] ]Take action and then spread the word: Biden must act immediately to
save the post office from DeJoy! >>

Thanks for all that you do!
