Vote NO on Brodsky & Gallo! Reject Trump's Postal Board Takeover

To: Sen. Padilla, Sen. Schiff

From: A constituent in El Dorado Hills, CA

August 7

Vote NO on confirming Jeffrey Brodsky and William Gallo to the USPS Board of Governors. The Senate has a real chance to stop Trump from stacking the postal board with corporate insiders who have zero postal experience and every incentive to do his bidding. Brodsky spent 30 years in corporate restructuring, cutting apart distressed companies for investors. Gallo comes from commodities trading. Neither has any record of defending universal service, affordable rates, rural delivery, or election mail. The mail is already slower and more expensive. A FedEx-linked Postmaster General already runs USPS. A Trump-dominated board will accelerate consolidations, price hikes, and a path toward privatization while almost certainly weakening protections for vote-by-mail heading into the midterms. Rural communities, seniors, veterans, small businesses, and voters across this country depend on a postal service that answers to the public, not to political donors. Reject these nominees and make clear that USPS is not Trump's to hand over.
