Please tell me how Postal Service delays impact you

Dear Friend,

I am outraged that President Trump is holding negotiations hostage on urgently needed COVID relief legislation--including desperately needed emergency funding for the U.S. Postal Service (USPS)--just because he doesn't want millions of Americans to be able to safely cast their ballots in the mail. We know that's what's happening because he admitted to it on live television. This shocking admission came on the heels of a concerted effort by his recently appointed Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, a former major donor to the Trump campaign and the Republican Party, to sabotage and politicize the operations of the Postal Service.

This morning, Postmaster General DeJoy testified before the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee. My colleagues detailed numerous complaints they have fielded from their constituents all around the country. There have been massive service disruptions, failures in delivery, removal of sorting machines, retaliation against postal workers who are raising attention to problems, and price hikes on packages, all stemming from the changes implemented since Mr. DeJoy took on his new leadership role. I have heard from many New Mexicans echoing similar concerns. During the hearing, I was disappointed to see Mr. DeJoy dodge questions and deny the widespread and detailed accounts of serious problems and noticeable delays in operations.
