Summary

USPS plans to continue its EV transition despite resistance from Trump’s team.

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy affirmed the $3 billion electrification effort, funded by last year’s climate bill, as “business sense,” with 75% of the fleet targeted for electrification by 2026.

Trump’s team aims to cancel contracts, favoring gas-powered vehicles.

USPS has ordered 66,000 EVs by 2028, including vehicles from Oshkosh and Ford.

While critics argue against high costs, USPS maintains that legislative action would be required to halt its EV plans, which aim to modernize its 217,000-vehicle fleet.

    He’s a self serving piece of shit that made fat donations to republicans and got installed with no prior experience to serve Trump’s agenda

    Like I said, just another CEO. I’m glad you added some context for this, because he’s definitely a huge piece of shit tearing apart the fabric of a functional government.
