(St. Paul, MN) — Minnesota’s two U.S. senators say the Postmaster General has promised solutions to the state’s current mail delivery problems.
Senators Tina Smith and Amy Klobuchar met with Louis DeJoy on Friday and say they talked about a variety of issues affecting postal service employees and customers. Klobuchar said DeJoy committed to addressing worker pay and understaffing while denying accusations that the Postal Service was giving Amazon packages a higher priority than regular mail.
The two senators are working with Congresswoman Angie Craig to pass a bill that would create more accountability in Postal Service operations.
