Louis DeJoy, the U.S. Postmaster General since 2020, has announced his resignation effective Monday, as discussions about the future of the USPS escalate. He previously sought help from Elon Musk's government efficiency team and initiated efforts to restructure the agency, notably halving projected losses over a decade. With Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino taking over temporarily, DeJoy’s resignation comes amid speculation about a potential merger between USPS and the Commerce Department, a move deemed illegal by Democrats. The USPS recorded significant financial losses, leading to discussions about privatization.
DeJoy's departure represents a significant shift in leadership at USPS, coming amid ongoing talks of privatization and government efficiency reforms championed by figures like Elon Musk.
In a statement, DeJoy noted that the ongoing efforts to restructure USPS were essential for its future, underscoring the need for continued improvements and leadership transitions.
