HAZELWOOD, Mo. – Concerns over delayed mail deliveries in eastern Missouri have prompted several lawmakers to take action. Potential consequences include impacts on daily deliveries to election ballots.

Four Republican members of Congress, all representing parts of Missouri, are demanding an audit of the Hazelwood Mail Sorting and Distribution Center.

Representatives Ann Wagner, Jason Smith, Blaine Luetkemeyer, and Sam Graves have sent a joint letter to U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, calling for the U.S. Postal Service’s Office of Inspector General to conduct an audit of the Hazelwood facility.

The lawmakers expressed growing concerns over delayed mail services, particularly the impact on absentee ballots during the August primaries. According to their letter, some absentee ballots were not delivered in time to be counted.
