Sign the petition: Louis DeJoy is weakening the USPS

 
It's time to restore USPS and make it better!

The United States Postal Service is a crucial part of our daily lives. But under Trump-appointed Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, the USPS has gotten slower, prices have gone up, and post office locations around the country have closed.¹

We can’t keep letting DeJoy erode services at the Post Office.

But the good news is Congress and President Biden have the ability to strengthen the USPS and help 7 million unbanked Americans by pushing for postal banking. This would enable consumers in need of core banking services to open bank accounts right at their local postal office.²

DeJoy claimed the price hikes and consolidation (read: closing) of postal offices would provide more revenue, but the reality is that he’s not delivering on the huge increase he promised.

Installing postal banking services at local post offices would help over 7 million families open accounts in accessible locations, keeping them safe from predatory lenders or major banks that often charge exorbitant fees and interest rates.³

If DeJoy has it his way, prices will keep going up and locations will keep closing, which hurts consumers and workers.⁴ It’s imperative that Congress take swift action to support our USPS and provide communities with the resources they need, including postal banking.

Add your name: Congress must pass postal banking legislation.

Thanks for taking action,

Joey and the team at Demand Progress
