Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL), Representative Sean Casten (D-IL-6) and others joined the front lines alongside letter carriers on Monday, protesting the Postmaster General’s plan to cut back. The Illinois State Association of Letter Carriers held an informational picket. This comes during Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s visit to Downers Grove. The letter carriers claim DeJoy’s “Delivering for America” plan is cost-cutting and would impact daily mail collection. The group also says it will harm the most vulnerable residents who rely on USPS to vote-by-mail, receive medication, make and receive payments, and other time-sensitive communication.
