Check out what NPR reported:

U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy is stepping down, the head of the country’s mail service confirmed in a statement on Monday.

Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino is set to head the U.S. Postal Service until the USPS governing board names a successor.

“I believe strongly that the organization is well positioned and capable of carrying forward and fully implementing the many strategies and initiatives that comprise our transformation and modernization,” DeJoy said in the statement released Monday evening, which referred to his “intention to retire.”

Last month, he asked the USPS Board of Governors in a letter to start a search for a new postmaster general.

DeJoy had notified the USPS board of directors in February that it was “time for them to begin the process of identifying his successor.” His resignation on Monday expedites that process and leaves Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino in charge until a permanent replacement is found.

“While our management team and the men and women of the Postal Service have established the path toward financial sustainability and high operating performance – and we have instituted enormous beneficial change to what had been an adrift and moribund organization – much work remains that is necessary to change our positive trajectory,” DeJoy said in a statement first reported by Reuters.

DeJoy had served as Postmaster General since May 2020. He previously donated to GOP political campaigns.
