Democrat calls on Biden to fire Trump’s Postal Service board, save the institution

Even though the 2020 election wasn’t ruined by sabotage and we now have President Joe Biden, we still have a deeply broke and highly politicized U.S. Postal Service (USPS). Among all the other housecleaning Biden has to do, New Jersey Rep. Bill Pascrell isn’t going to let him forget about it. The Democrat has written to Biden, urging him to “fire the entire Postal Board of Governors for their silence and complicity in trump and dejoy’s [sic] attempts to subvert the election and destroy the Post Office.”

“Through the devastating arson of the Trump regime, the USPS Board of Governors sat silent,” Pascrell argued in his letter. The Republican board of governors, the creation of Trump and Mitch McConnell, has to go, Pascrell argues, for their “refusal to oppose the worst destruction ever inflicted on the Postal Service” while Postmaster General Louise DeJoy was imposing his changes to cause mail delays and sabotage the service. “The continued challenges in preserving our Postal Service to survive and endure are gargantuan, and so demand bold solutions to meet them,” Pascrell wrote. “To begin that work, we must have a governing body that can be trusted to represent the public interest.”
