https://mauinow.com/2021/06/22/hawaiʻi-attorney-general-joins-coalition-to-stop-more-us-post-office-service-cuts/Hawaiʻi Attorney General Clare E. Connors joined a group of 21 attorneys general and two cities to oppose Postmaster General Louis DeJoys efforts to increase delivery times for First-Class Mail and other essential postal services.
As part of the USPS Strategic Plan, it seeks to further degrade service standards with more than 30
percent of contiguous First-Class Mail subject to a delivery standard of 4 or 5 days as opposed to the current standard of 2 to 3 days, the coalition said in its statement of position.

(22,468 posts)5. Because he can only be removed by a majority vote of the board
And one of the Democrats on the board supports him.
That Democrat, along with one of the Republican board members, have terms that expire at the end of this year.
At that point, Biden can appoint another Democrat, and, if he chooses, leave the Republican position vacant. At that point there will be a clear Dem majority on the board, and DeJoy should be toast.
