The Trump Administration has been reviving plans to privatize the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). But many lawmakers don’t like the idea, including some from President Donald Trump’s own party.
“We are not going to privatize the Postal Service,” declared U.S. Representative Pete Stauber, Republican of Minnesota, at a March 25 rural letter carriers rally on Capitol Hill. “We rely on you to bring us our medicine, bring us our food, bring us our Social Security checks, bring us our documents that we need in a timely fashion.”
Stauber understands that if the U.S. Postal Service is sold off to for-profit corporations, many of his constituents in northern Minnesota’s Iron Range would almost certainly lose mail and package delivery at their homes—or have to pay an arm and a leg for it.
