House Panel Calls New Postmaster General To Explain Mail Delays
Source:Huff Post
he House Oversight Committee has invited the new postmaster general to appear at a September hearing to examine operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service that are causing delays in mail deliveries across the country.
he plan imposed by Louis DeJoy, a Republican fundraiser who took over the top job at the Postal Service in June, eliminates overtime for hundreds of thousands of postal workers and orders that mail be kept until the next day if postal distribution centers are running late.
Rep. Carolyn Maloney, a New York Democrat who chairs the Oversight panel, said the Sept. 17 hearing will focus on the need for on-time mail delivery during the ongoing pandemic and upcoming election, which is expected to include a major expansion of mail-in ballots.
President Donald Trump has warned that allowing more people to vote by mail will result in a CORRUPT ELECTION that will LEAD TO THE END OF OUR GREAT REPUBLICAN PARTY, even though theres no evidence that will happen. Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and other top administration officials frequently vote absentee themselves.
Last week, Trump even floated on Twitter the prospect of delaying the Nov. 3 election an idea lawmakers from both parties quickly shot down.
FINALLY!!! This hearing cannot come sooner enough.
