I spoke with the Postmaster General again today. She could not have been more clear:

The Postal Service will collapse without urgent intervention, and it will happen soon.

We’ve pleaded with the White House to help. @realDonaldTrump personally directed his staff not to do so. https://twitter.com/npfandos/status/1248314375406080000">https://twitter.com/npfandos/...
A progressive response to this pandemic is not possible without USPS.

- Vote by mail.
- More direct payments.
- Rx delivery for isolated seniors and those with disabilities.

This isn’t just another squabble.

This is at the core of all we’ve fought for.

#SaveThePostOffice
The Postal Service is an American institution. We may not fully realize it yet, but there& #39;s not a single person who won& #39;t feel the impact if it disappears.

This is personal to all of us, and that means there& #39;s room for common ground.

What& #39;s your reason to #SaveThePostOffice?
“We told them very clearly that the president was not going to sign the bill if [money for the Postal Service] was in it,” the Trump administration official said.

Americans want to #SaveThePostOffice, @realDonaldTrump. Whether we can is up to you. http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2020/04/11/post-office-bailout-trump/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/...
