The report arrived after Nancy Pelosi said the Postmater General’s pause on operations is « wholly insufficient and does not reverse damage already wreaked. »
The United States Postal Service (USPS) is telling maintenance managers not to reconnect or reinstall any mailing sorting machines which have already been disconnected even after the suspension of changes to operations, according to reports. The message was sent in an email, seen by CNN and Motherboard, after Postmaster General Louis DeJoy publicly announced a halt on any initiatives for the service in order to avoid « even the appearance of any impact on election mail » ahead of November’s vote. It also was sent ahead of DeJoy being set to testify in front of the Senate on Friday. There have been concerns about whether the current USPS system would be able to handle the expected rise of ballots as more people choose to vote by mail as a result of COVID-19 pandemic.
