Postmaster General Louia DeJoy Announces Plans to Step Down

The Postal Service Board of Governors will begin searching for DeJoy's successor to continue implementing their 10-year 'Delivering for America' plan, which includes a significant investment in infrastructure and operations.
Amber McReynolds, chairwoman of the Board of Governors, praised DeJoy for his efforts to modernize the Postal Service and improve its financial stability, while acknowledging service disruptions during his tenure.
Ongoing postal issues in Georgia, including severe mail delays, have led to bipartisan calls for USPS accountability and effective solutions to address public frustrations regarding service.
