MCALLEN, TEXAS –TodayCongressman Vicente Gonzalez (TX-34) celebrated the recent announcement by the United States Postal Service (USPS) to retain mail processing operations at the McAllen postal facility.

This announcement follows previous proposals by the USPS to consolidate and relocate McAllen and San Antonio mail processing operations to the San Antonio Processing and Distribution Center (P&DC) in 2025 which would have disrupted and delayed mail delivery for South Texans. Congressman Gonzalez, along with Congressmen Joaquin Castro (TX-20), Henry Cuellar (TX-28), and Greg Casar (TX-35), previously urged USPS to reconsider these plans in a letter to Postmaster General Louis DeJoy earlier this year. USPS has not yet made a decision for Corpus Christi relocation plans.

“This is a win for the Rio Grande Valley,” said Congressman Gonzalez. “Every region of the country deserves efficient and reliable delivery services for their everyday needs, whether that’s sending gifts during the Holiday season or paying their bills, and South Texas is no different. I’m pleased to see the USPS scrap this plan and listen to the people of our region.”
