THE US Postal Service has been forced into damage control after mountains of mail sat untouched for weeks at a key processing hub.
Furious residents in Mississippi have been left waiting for vital letters, bills, and packages as postal bosses scramble to fix the chaos.
USPS leaders admitted to the crisis and sent top officials to the embattled Jackson Processing Facility to tackle the growing backlog, reported the Mississippi Free Press.
The mail meltdown sparked an urgent probe from lawmakers, with US Representative Bennie Thompson demanding answers.
“My office has been made aware of the persistent mail delays which have caused significant inconvenience to residents and businesses,” the Mississippi Democrat said.
The disruptions first made headlines in February when frustrated locals spoke out about missing mail.
