BREAKING: Postmaster General Louis DeJoy displaces the two top executives overseeing day-to-day operations, and reassigns 23 more postal executives, centralizing power around himself as delays grow at USPS ahead of mostly vote-by-mail election. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/08/07/postal-service-investigation-dejoy/

Congressional Democrats need to do something about this TODAY. If we wait until October/November, it'll be too late. Trump is actively sabotaging the election under our noses-- this isn't theoretical, it's happening RIGHT NOW.

Use inherent contempt powers to bring DeJoy to testify (now, not in 6 weeks). Pass legislation codifying timely mail delivery (even if that means paying overtime), include USPS funding in the next relief bill (non-negotiable). This is a fucking five-alarm fire- what’s being done?

Grind the government to a fucking halt if we have to. I can’t stress this enough— if the USPS is sabotaged, this will amount to the greatest voter suppression campaign in history. The election will effectively become void... AND THAT IS WHAT TRUMP WANTS— THAT IS HIS POINT HERE.

Americans are busting our asses to organize and register voters out here, but something needs to be done in Congress so that this is not all for nothing. @RepSwalwell @tedlieu @CoryBooker @KamalaHarris @RepAdamSchiff @RepKatiePorter @AOC @RepRaskin https://twitter.com/briantylercohen/status/1291891571558715393
