U.S. Senator John Ossoff continues to put pressure on the US Postal Service (USPS) saying the delays that are happening with the mail system are unacceptable for Georgia residents. Ossoff has said that a 36% on-time delivery rate is not something that Georgia residents should have to deal with.
Ossoff is vowing to continue to put “maximum pressure” on the postal service but made it clear last week when he toured a USPS processing facility in Palmetto, Georgia that the problem lies with management – not the workers with the postal service. Ossoff said, “This is not on postal workers; this is a question of management, competent management.” The USPS says the delays are the result of problems encountered during the roll-out last winter of a restructuring plan aimed at making the postal service economically self-sufficient.
“This transition for our region was not well thought out, not well planned, and not competently executed,” Ossoff said.
Because of Senator Ossoff’s pressure, the USPS has put the restructuring plan on hold to “try to figure out what went wrong”, that according to a statement by the USPS.
