U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) released the following statement after Postmaster General Louis DeJoy agreed to pause implementation of βMail Processing Facility Reviewβ changes impacting Abilene, Corpus Christi, El Paso, Lubbock, McAllen, and Midland after Sen. Cornyn and 26 of his Senate colleagues called on the United States Postal Service (USPS) to pause processing and delivery network changes that could slow down mail delivery:
βTimely and reliable mail delivery is essential for Texans, who depend on the Postal Service for everything from medication deliveries to notes from loved ones from afar,β said Sen. Cornyn. βI appreciate General DeJoyβs good faith effort to heed our concerns and believe this is a positive first step towards much-needed transparency, analysis, and accountability to ensure all Texans can count on this critical service.β
βI will commit to pause any implementation of these moves at least until after January 1, 2025. Even then, we will advance these efforts only at a moderated pace of implementation,β said Postmaster General DeJoy in his letter responding to Sen. Cornyn.
