Indiana congressional delegation members have penned a letter to the U.S. Postal Service regarding delivery delays at the Indianapolis distribution hub. The letter, signed by every member of Indiana’s delegation in Congress, expresses concerns about the disruptions in mail and package delivery in the state, especially those linked to the Indianapolis hub. Constituents have reported late deliveries of medications, financial documents, and essential business shipments, with packages being stuck in transit for days to weeks. The delegation has also heard of mail being rerouted through Louisville, Kentucky, instead of the Evansville, Indiana, hub, causing further delays and disruptions for communities. Rural communities in Indiana are particularly affected, with some post offices closing or limiting services, requiring residents to drive longer distances for mail services.
The letter requests a detailed explanation from the postmaster general on the causes of the delays and specific steps the Postal Service is taking to address them. It also asks for updates on immediate changes at the Indianapolis facility to reduce package wait times, as well as a long-term strategy to ensure reliable access to mail services for Hoosiers. The delegation highlights the importance of USPS in ensuring timely and reliable mail service and calls for action to resolve the issues affecting Indiana residents and businesses.
