As Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s 10-year plan grinds into effect with higher rates and slower service during the critical holiday mailing season, pressure is growing on President Biden to replace him.
Having just appointed two new members to the Board of Governors of the Postal Service, that move now appears to be within his grasp. But what ails the Post Office is bigger than DeJoy, and it started long before he did.

“If you think getting rid of him solves the problem, it doesn’t,” Mark Jamison, a military veteran and retired postmaster from North Carolina, told Newsweek. “The problem is much deeper than DeJoy.”
