President Biden must fire Louis DeJoy

In the face of a crisis threatening one of our most trusted democratic institutions, the United States Postal Service, it's time for each of us to step forward and urge President Biden to take decisive action. [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME}, American democracy thrives on checks and balances, equality, fairness, and the right to vote. The United States Postal Service (USPS), founded on the promise of facilitating communication and enabling democracy, has an irreplaceable role in safeguarding these principles. But under the leadership of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, the USPS has faced various attacks to bring down this iconic institution and democracy itself. Since DeJoy's appointment by Trump in May 2020, the USPS has witnessed significant operational changes, which have been met with widespread disapproval. DeJoy's controversial decisions, such as reducing overtime, eliminating certain mail sorting machines, and changing operational hours, have led to substantial delays in mail delivery. This has adversely impacted millions of Americans, especially those who rely on the USPS for essential deliveries, including medications, paychecks, and important documents. The changes implemented under DeJoy's helm are all a part of an effort to weaken the USPS's ability to handle mail-in voting effectively. The slowdown of mail service, just before a significant presidential election in 2020 shows how DeJoy has weaponized the USPS to undermine the very fabric of American democracy. [With these concerns in mind, it is crucial for President Biden to ensure the USPS can continue to fulfill its mission. Tell President Biden to use his authority to protect the USPS, starting with the dismissal of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.]( [Sign & Send]( One of the most significant reasons DeJoy must go is the erosion of public trust under his leadership. The USPS has always been a reliable, essential service, but under DeJoy's mismanagement, the unprecedented mail delays, the perceived politicization of mail-in voting, and the lack of transparency have seriously hurt the USPS. Public trust is the cornerstone of any public institution, and without it, the effectiveness and credibility of the USPS are severely compromised. DeJoy's tenure has been marked by controversy and public outcry, making it increasingly clear that his continued presence is incompatible with confidence in the USPS. A change in leadership is necessary to keep public trust and ensure that the USPS can effectively serve all Americans, regardless of where they live or their political affiliations. This change starts with the dismissal of Louis DeJoy.
