Postal workers conducting the census is part of a Trump pitch for taking over USPS


//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. -part-of-a-trump-pitch-for-taking-over-usps.html
Published in Politics and Government on by LAist   Print publication without navigation

The Trump administration has suggested bringing the U.S. Postal Service under White House control, and having mail carriers conduct the census. Here's what to know about the controversial ideas.

The article from LAist discusses the concerns of postal workers and census officials regarding the Trump administration's actions towards the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) and the 2020 Census. It highlights how the administration's efforts to undermine the USPS, including the appointment of Louis DeJoy as Postmaster General, who implemented cost-cutting measures that slowed mail delivery, could impact the timely delivery of mail-in ballots and census forms. This was particularly critical as the census was already facing challenges due to the ongoing global health crisis, which had shifted much of the census process online or through the mail. The article notes that these changes could lead to an undercount, especially in communities of color, potentially affecting the allocation of federal funds and political representation. Furthermore, it mentions legal actions taken by states and advocacy groups against these USPS changes, emphasizing the potential disenfranchisement of voters and the accuracy of the census.
