Katie Hobbs talks about asking Arizona's AG to investigate Trump administration over USPS

Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs is asking AZ Attorney General Mark Brnovich to investigate the Trump administration after recent changes in the US Postal Service threaten to delay mail delivery ahead of the November election. In a letter sent to Brnovich on Friday, Hobbs alleges that changes in the “organizational structure” within the postal service has hurt the ability of postal workers to deliver and sort mail on time. Specifically, she points to an August 7, 2020 announcement from Postmaster General Louis DeJoy regarding modifications that DeJoy said would reduce costs and capture new revenues. “The timing of such changes—just months before a major election in which a record number of people are expected to rely on USPS when exercising their fundamental right to vote—would be conspicuous on its own.,” Hobbs said in the letter.
