Half a century ago, Congress redesigned the US Postal Service as an independent, self-funding government agency. That model seemed to work until 2007, when the agency began booking multibillion-dollar deficits annually.

After years of financial losses and resulting organizational degradation, the Postal Service’s ability to leverage its independence, resources, and infrastructure to operate as Congress had intended is in question. As the Postal Service works to implement its 10-year “Delivering for America” transformation plan, it’s time to ask how postal leadership will achieve the financial sustainability and performance that the American people expect.

Join AEI’s Kevin Kosar for a discussion with Postmaster General Louis DeJoy on the transformation of the Postal Service to meet the evolving mailing and shipping needs of America’s citizens and businesses.
