WASHINGTON — For weeks, members of Georgia’s congressional delegation have asked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to explain and address the issues causing delays with mail delivery across the state.
Now, some say it is time for DeJoy to step down.
U.S. Rep. Mike Collins, R-Jackson, was the first to speak out. He told 11 Alive News on Tuesday that DeJoy “should have already taken that resignation and put it on somebody’s desk.”
But he isn’t the only one.
U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, who has sent multiple letters outlining concerns with the U.S. Postal Service, said he also believes DeJoy should resign.
“I’ve been hearing from Georgians on this issue, and so I’ve been raising the issue,” said Warnock, an Atlanta Democrat. “And we’ll continue to push, but we are past time on the need for change.”
U.S. Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Lithonia, said DeJoy “needs to go. He’s a job and service-delivery killer.”
