U.S. Rep. Susan Wild joined colleagues in the House this week in urging President Joe Biden to fill three vacancies on the U.S. Postal Service Board of Governors.
Three seats remain vacant from former President Donald Trump’s administration at a time of “ongoing crisis at the United States Postal Service,” the House members said in a Feb. 16 letter to Biden.
“We strongly believe that filling those three vacancies would enhance the ability of the Board to reach nonpartisan consensus on matters of importance,” the letter states. “The lack of bipartisan consensus is evident in the Board of Governors’ selection of Republican Party megadonor Louis DeJoy – who had no experience working for the Postal Service prior to his appointment – to succeed Megan Brennan as Postmaster General in June 2020.
