USPS: Pelosi to recall the House to 'save' the post office
In a letter released on Sunday, Ms Pelosi criticised plans by the USPS's new head, Louis DeJoy, which she said would"degrade postal service, delay the mail, and - according to the Postal Service itself - threaten to deny the ability of eligible Americans to cast their votes through the mail in the upcoming elections in a timely fashion".
Ms Pelosi said she would call on House representatives to vote on a new bill to prohibit the USPS from introducing any changes to the service or operations it provided at the beginning of this year in the coming week. A date for the vote has not yet been announced. Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, have accused Mr Trump of attacking postal voting and the USPS in a bid to"undermine the election".
