Hi,

Trump appointee Donald “Lee” Moak still sits on the leadership board of the United States Postal Service. Any day now, President Biden could announce he’s reinstating Moak instead of replacing him. We need to send Biden a message: we want Moak out, now!

Moak and the other Postal Governors have the power to remove Trump’s Postmaster General Louis DeJoy from office. Biden must nominate Postal Governors who will take a stand against DeJoy’s campaign to decimate the postal service.

Sign the petition: Tell President Biden to nominate a Postal Governor to replace Trump appointee Donald “Lee” Moak who will stand up to Louis DeJoy!

The situation at the USPS is dire, with DeJoy trying to slash USPS operations by cutting positions, hiking postage rates, and shuttering post offices around the country.1 A federal judge recently ruled that DeJoy tanked the delivery of ballots in the 2020 election by making changes to mail delivery just before the election.2

Heading into election season, we can’t take any further risks with our mail delivery.

We still have Trump appointees on the Postal Board of Governors and Trump appointee Louis DeJoy at the helm. To turn the USPS around, we need new nominees to the Board who will challenge DeJoy; invest in a union-made, electric postal fleet; ensure postal jobs remain good union jobs; and expand USPS public service even further by looking into offering banking services, internet access, and more through the postal service.3

Sign the petition: Tell President Biden to nominate two board members to the Postal Board of Governors who will stand up to Louis DeJoy!

Thanks for taking action,

Izzi and the team at Demand Progress
