Re: Vote NO on USPS Board of Governors nominees Jeffrey Brodsky and William Gallo
Dear Senator:
The Save the Post Office Coalition, a member organization with over 300 national and state organizations including many retired and active postal workers, urges you to vote NO and reject the nominations of Jeffrey Brodsky and William Gallo to serve on the United States Postal Service Board of Governors.
These nominees do not have a record of public service and they do not reflect the public interest in protecting the public service mission of the Postal Service, nor are they individuals who are reflective of the postal workforce and the nation. Mr. Brodsky and Mr. Gallo are wealthy businessmen with close ties to President Trump who both come from corporate insider backgrounds. They lack the qualifications needed to lead the nation’s oldest and most cherished public institution. Finally, given the Postal Service’s key role in delivering election mail for voters across the country in rural areas and who have limited mobility or ability to vote in person, and the Trump administration’s unprecedented attacks on election mail, we strongly urge a vote against advancing these nominees.
Our coalition has sent nearly 60,000 letters urging the Senate to vote NO on Mr. Brodsky and Mr. Gallo’s confirmation. We strongly believe the Postal Service must remain public, independent, affordable, universal, and accountable to the people. It must serve rural communities, Tribal and Indigenous communities, older people, veterans, small businesses, postal workers, voters with disabilities, military families, caregivers, students, and every household in every ZIP code.
To protect and expand our public Postal Service the Senate must only confirm nominees to the USPS Board of Governors who will be steadfast in their leadership to take the Postal Service Reform Act as a mandate to protect and expand postal services and bring USPS into the future, and strongly reject and protect against any form of privatization, workforce reductions, or attempts to undermine election mail.
Sincerely,
The Save the Post Office Coalition
