Unconscionable

To cut back our U.S. Postal Service hours is unconscionable at ANY time, much more so at this national time of pandemic response. When so many Americans are newly unemployed, are losing basic food and shelter provisions, along with transportation and other daily necessities, let us remember the thousands who have NEVER been able to use or rely on the world wide web for ANYTHING ! So that leaves what is often referred to as “snail mail.” Now, with our present administration’s attempt to control voting by reducing U.S.P.S. resources, FRAIL MAIL would be a better term.

I, for one, will always support our local and national mail service. It is LESS LIKELY to be an instrument of fraud than anything done digitally these days. President Trump knows this. His choice of a millionaire campaign donor to be in charge of the U.S.P.S. is an obvious warning for every voter in America, regardless of party affiliation.
