Trump eyes privatizing USPS, citing financial
losses
12.15.2024 -
The Guardian reports: "Donald Trump in recent weeks has expressed a keen interest in privatizing the US Postal Service (USPS) because of its financial losses, the
Washington Post reported on Saturday, citing three people with knowledge of the matter. Trump, who begins his second US presidency on 20 January, has discussed his desire to privatize the USPS with Howard Lutnick, his pick for commerce secretary, at his Mar-a-Lago
home, the report said. As the Post noted, the move could disrupt consumer
shipping and business supply chains while pushing hundreds of thousands of
federal workers out of government." -

DeJoy's changes will give USPS its best holiday
season performance ever, officials say
11.26.2024 -
GovExec reports: "USPS will bring on just 7,500 temporary workers to help the agency complete processing and delivery efforts, with employees having started as early as October and staying on as late as mid-January. That is down slightly from its target of 10,000 hires last year and precipitously from 45,000 in 2021. Postal management has maintained that its efforts to convert nearly 200,000 part-time staff to full-time, career employees over the last several years has mitigated its need to onboard seasonal workers."
