USPS to cut 10,000 jobs in partnership with DOGE

The United States Postal Service (USPS) will cut 10,000 jobs as part of a new partnership with DOGE, according to outgoing Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. This decision aims to improve efficiency amid financial challenges. DeJoy stated that USPS needs to adapt to modern demands and address outdated practices. He emphasized that the Postal Service operates without taxpayer funding and must be self-sufficient. Concerns have been raised about employee safety and data privacy in light of the partnership. The National Association of Letter Carriers expressed worries about potential access to member information by DOGE.
