USPS partners with DOGE to improve efficiency
npr.org —
The head of the U.S. Postal Service has allowed Elon Musk's DOGE team to assist in improving efficiency at the agency. However, access to employee records will be limited to protect privacy. This agreement comes amid ongoing USPS reorganization efforts and previous controversies surrounding DOGE's access to data at other federal agencies. Concerns have been raised by postal unions about potential privacy violations. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy noted that USPS has been implementing its own strategies for efficiency. He provided DOGE with a list of significant issues that are beyond the agency's control, indicating a complex operational environment.
