U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has informed the Postal Board of Governors that he intends to step down from his role leading the U.S. Postal Service. | |
| In a letter, he writes in part: As you know, I've worked tirelessly to lead the 640,000 men and women of the Postal Service in accomplishing an extraordinary transformation. | ||
| We have served the American people through an unprecedented pandemic and through a period of high inflation and sensationalized politics. | ||
| Our successful role in delivering approximately 930 million COVID test kits to 91 million households is only one testament to the superb work performed in these last five years on behalf of the American people. | ||
| The letter goes on to request that the Board of Governors begin the process of selecting a new Postmaster General. | ||
| Mr. DeJoy was originally tapped by President Trump to lead the agency in May of 2020. |
