John,

While President Biden signed a landmark Post Office reform bill into law
last week — finally putting the Postal Service on solid footing again —
Trump’s handpicked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy was still at work trying
to sabotage and undermine the USPS with his backward and destructive
policies.

As the Post Office negotiates a contract to purchase a fleet of 160,000
new mail trucks, DeJoy is pushing for a 90% gasoline-powered fleet. Talk
about behind the times.

You read that right. DeJoy wants to pay over $11 billion in taxpayer
dollars for a fleet that doesn’t even get 9 miles per gallon — which would
pump 20 million metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere. That’s the
equivalent of adding 4.3 million passenger cars to America’s roads.

He won’t even consider the more cost-effective, sustainable alternative of
an all-electric fleet. What else would you expect from a Trump loyalist?

[ [link removed] ]John, this is outrageous, short-sighted, and just plain
stupid. If you agree the USPS needs to reverse course immediately and move
to an all-electric mail truck fleet, add your name to my urgent petition
today.

I don’t need to tell you what a disaster it would be to lock in this
contract. Why on earth would we willingly pump more toxic pollutants into
the atmosphere knowing there are better alternatives?

Last week’s report from the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change shows just how dire things are, and how little time we have
left to act to stave off the worst effects of the climate crisis.

You have to be deep in fossil fuel lobbyists’ pockets or deep in denial to
think a new gas-powered fleet is a good idea in 2022.

[ [link removed] ]John, add your name to my petition demanding the USPS
reverse course on their gas-powered mail truck fleet and invest our
taxpayer dollars into electric vehicles.

[ [link removed] ]ADD YOUR NAME

The American people did not elect President Biden and Democratic
majorities in Congress for one Trump crony at the head of the USPS to
continue with this destructive policy. Thanks for adding your name — we
can’t let DeJoy get away with this.

— Adam
