DeJoy announces plans to step down as USPS postmaster general

Postmaster General Louis DeJoy is planning to step down from his role, and is calling on the Postal Service Board of Governors to start looking for his successor.

DeJoy, in a letter dated Monday, told the USPS Board of Governors to begin searching for a new postmaster general. DeJoy took office in June 2020.

“While there remains much critical work to be done to ensure that the Postal Service can be financially viable as we continue to serve the nation in our essential public service mission, I have decided it is time to start the process of identifying my successor and of preparing the Postal Service for this change,” DeJoy said in a statement.

USPS is about midway through DeJoy’s10-year reform plan. The agency has yet to reach its “break-even” financial targets, but reported a rare net profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.
