Rep. Sharice Davids says Postmaster DeJoy suspending USPS changes ‘not enough’
After calling for the removal of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids said in a statement DeJoy’s suspension of new policies to the United States Postal Service “is not enough.”
Davids said she’s talked to hundreds of Kansans who are concerned about USPS, including those weary of voting by mail. While she said she’s glad DeJoy suspended the USPS changes, Davids said it’s unclear whether the removed mail sorting machines will be restored.
“These are the consequences of this Administration’s attempts to sabotage the Postal Service for their own political gain,” Davids said. “It’s why I spoke out against the Postmaster General’s reckless policies, and why I believe he needs to be replaced with new, nonpartisan leadership.”
With the House of Representatives heading back into session this week, Davids said she’s also advocating for the passage of a bipartisan coronavirus relief package.
