Gene Cowan on Nostr: Biden is nominating former Rep. Val Demings (D-Fl) to fill the last remaining vacancy ...
Biden is nominating former Rep. Val Demings (D-Fl) to fill the last remaining vacancy on the USPS Board of Governors. She, along with former Labor Secretary Marty Walsh, are now awaiting confirmation by the Senate Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs Committee, which is chaired by Sen. Gary Peters (D). That would give Biden 7 appointees on the 9-member board. Because the Postmaster General's hiring and firing is up to the board and not Biden, DeJoy could be removed.
