The newly appointed U.S. Postal Service (USPS) Postmaster General, who has been vocal against privatization, is initiating his tenure during a critical period for the agency. He aims to stabilize USPS finances while downplaying concerns related to privatization amidst political pressures. Congressional leaders from Colorado have invited him to address issues like unacceptable delivery delays. There is a growing call for congressional action to support the USPS and ensure its independence, especially as postal workers express both hope and uncertainty regarding the future under the new leadership. Reform is deemed essential for the agency, rather than merely an increase in rates as it strives to navigate impending challenges.
