Dems: COVID Relief Must Include USPS Funding, End To Slowdown

Let's hope those Democratic leaders hold firm on this:

Schumer said he and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told DeJoy, along with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, that their demands regarding the Postal Service are necessary to striking a deal on broader relief bill that may also include new unemployment benefits and a payroll tax cut.

The sabotage of the USPS must be stopped.  This is the only way to leverage that outcome before even more damage is done to the USPS and a free and fair election.
