Postmaster General Louis DeJoy notified the table that the United States Postal Service would commence the search for his replacement in a letter that was sent to him.  ,
Republicans and Democrats criticized him for nearly five years of his career.  ,
DeJoy wrote in the text that” Postmaster General is a demanding position made more difficult by the postal service’s destructive state when I arrived and the almost incessant resistance to change.” I have fought against this, and as a result, I think I can honestly say that my career was filled with great expectations and vigorous activity.
DeJoy was appointed to the position in June 2020 during President Donald Trump’s first management, during the first month of the COVID-19 crisis. His day in the position was initially prompted by concerns about whether the pandemic’s service reductions would have an impact on vote-by-mail campaigns for the 2020 presidential election. Finally, last season, DeJoy was criticized by both parties for his determination to stop politicians from visiting U. S. postal services.
He remained in the position through previous President Joe Biden’s management. DeJoy did never reveal a timeline to consider his alternative.
Four years after the 10-year reform program he directed for USPS, he leaves. The program includes higher post rates, slower normal distribution, and fewer article offices to try to decrease some of USPS’s monetary losses. USPS has never been a profitable business like UPS or FedEx, but it lost$ 98 billion between 2007 and 2023 and an additional$ 9.5 billion last year. In 2022, the postal service saw a$ 56 billion net income, ending a nearly 15-year run of annual net loss.
DeJoy said in his speech,” The main activities we are currently undertaking are multi-year applications, and it is crucial to have leadership in place whose terms will cross this coming year.”

DeJoy’s withdrawal comes at an uncertain period for the postal service. In December, Trump said his staff was “looking” at the idea of privatizing the company. During his first term, he floated a related concept.
Given that the Constitution explicitly grants to Congress the authority to establish post offices, Trump does not have the power to break the USPS on his own.
