Governmental Reform in A Time of Political Polarization: The Case of the U.S Postal Service

Please join us on April 12 for a conversation between Postmaster General Louis DeJoy and Professor Peter Feaver on the sweeping new postal service reform. PMG DeJoy will discuss the rare bipartisan support of the Postal Service Reform Act of 2022 and how this massive financial reform will impact the future of the USPS. On April 5, President Joe Biden signed the Postal Service Reform Act of 2022 into law. The act, which provides the agency with a financial overhaul, will allow the USPS to modernize its services and address the service delays affecting the mail service. "The post office is central to our economy," said President Biden, adding that the bill is "setting the postal service on a more sustainable and stable financial footing." This event will not be livestreamed.
