John —
Donald Trump’s handpicked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy just announced his plan to slash 50,000 jobs from USPS. Remember, this is the same guy who:
- Left his job as finance chair at the Republican National Committee to take this position
- Helped Donald Trump undermine vote-by-mail by slowing down mail delivery and decommissioning mail ballot sorting machines right before the 2020 election
- Remains at odds with the White House and Environmental Protection Agency’s recommendations to replace aging gas-powered USPS vehicles with fully electric ones
The list goes on. And you might be wondering, “Why does this guy hate the USPS so much?” Well, there’s also this: DeJoy’s family business includes direct competitors with the Postal Service.
It’s clear what he’s trying to do. Destroy the USPS from within, in order to gain political points from Trump and his acolytes but also to profit financially.
Enough is enough. With President Biden’s nominees confirmed, the USPS Board of Governors finally has the power to fire DeJoy and replace him with a competent, nonpartisan leader, and they’ve got to do it now.
Add your name to my petition demanding the USPS Board of Governors remove Trump's handpicked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy before he can do any more damage.
I won’t stand to see DeJoy’s sabotage plot continue to hurt our nation’s oldest postal system. Thanks for joining me in calling for action.
