This is intentional on DeJoy's part and a big part of why he was appointed.


So what's Biden's excuse for keeping him? He's had almost four years to find someone else (or more specifically to appoint board governors who will.)


Not appointed by the president. So, there’s no legal way to do that directly.


Really? Who does appoint the governors, then?

We thought there was no legal way to do a lot of things that Trump did, yet he did them anyway. Turns out a lot of things we thought were "laws" were either regulations subject to repeal or modification by executive order, or just "guidelines" or "gentlemens' agreements" that were always open to abuse by anyone willing to cast tradition aside for the sake of expediency. It's ironic that only the conservatives are willing to do that these days.


This is an excellent question! I believe Biden has had time to change the USPS Board of Governors but somehow DeJoy is still in place.
