White House chief of staff Mark Meadows says the USPS won't dismantle mail-sorting machines between now and Election Day, despite reports to the contrary.
"Sorting machines between now and Election Day will not be taken off line," Meadows told CNN's Jake Tapper on"State of the Union."The postal service has come under criticism lately for dismantling some machines across the country and planning on more.
A letter sent Wednesday from the National Postal Mail Handlers Union to the Postal Service headquarters asked,"Why are these machines being removed?"On Friday, the postal service, which is mired in longstanding funding problems, warned nearly all 50 states and Washington, DC, that mail-in ballots may not be received by election offices in time to be counted.
