The United States Postal Service is vital for all Americans. In a huge election year in which more people will vote-by-mail than ever before, the USPS is something to protect. Mail service has slowed across the country, but does this mean it is a deliberate attack to prevent ballots from being delivered and counted? The Postal Service processes and delivers 472.1 million mail pieces each day. It can rise and meet the needs for the November election. However, after years of defunding, it might need a boost as well.
In this weekly webinar series, we will dive into the most recent developments around the USPS and how things might affect the November 3 election. Jessica Jones Caparell, Policy & Legislative Affairs Senior Manager at the League of Women Voters of the United States, will talk more about their lawsuit to protect the USPS.
