The National Postal Mail Handlers Union (NPMHU) acknowledged Postmaster General Louis DeJoy's resignation and expressed their willingness to work with Acting PMG Doug Tulino during the transition. The NPMHU emphasized the importance of the next leader understanding the Postal Service's public service obligation and the need to protect the postal workforce. They also highlighted the need for the Board of Governors to find a successor who believes in the Postal Service as a public entity and opposes privatization.
The following is a statement by NPMHU:
On the night of Monday, March 10, the Postmaster General (PMG) and Deputy PMG met with members of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) at the United States Postal Service Headquarters. Mail Handlers have seen the DOGE team dismantle federal agencies, impacting services provided to Americans across the country, and are therefor rightly concerned about the potential impact on the work of the Postal Service generally and the work of the more than 54,000 dedicated mail handlers across the country.
