USPS to cut 10,000 jobs through voluntary buyouts
The United States Postal Service (USPS) plans to cut 10,000 jobs through voluntary buyouts in the next 30 days, as stated by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. This follows a previous reduction of 30,000 jobs four years ago. DeJoy's letter to Congress outlines a new agreement with the Department of Government Efficiency to improve USPS operations. He highlighted issues such as mismanaged worker compensation and unfunded mandates imposed by Congress. The national postal workers' association is organizing rallies on March 23 to protest against the cuts and potential changes to the postal service.
