RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – U.S. Senators Jacky Rosen, and Catherine Cortez Masto, and Representative Mark Amodei all met with the U.S. Postal Service to discuss a move that would send Reno’s mail processing center to Sacramento.
The proposed move has drawn ire from Rosen and Cortez Masto and raised concerns over the possibility of the pass closing during an election, as well as concern that it could cause delays in the shipping of mail, social security checks, and medication.
The trio additionally expressed concerns over how the move would impact local jobs.
“In our meeting with USPS executives today, they were unable to provide us with detailed explanations of how this misguided proposal is good for Nevada,” said Senator Rosen. “I’m outraged by the lack of answers and transparency we have received on a matter that could lead to delayed mail delivery for Nevadans who depend on it. I won’t stop pushing to stop this ill-advised plan, and I look forward to questioning Postmaster General Louis DeJoy about it next week.”
“In today’s meeting with the USPS I made it clear that moving the Reno distribution center to California is a mistake that would kill Nevada jobs and could delay the delivery of Nevadans’ essential medications, benefits, and ballots,” said Senator Cortez Masto. “Not a single Nevadan I’ve talked to thinks this is a good idea, and I will continue fighting to stop it.”
“Despite today’s meeting with the Postal Service, anything resembling Reno-specific justifications for the proposed plan to ship Nevada’s mail to Sacramento and back is still unavailable,” said Congressman Amodei. “I want to thank House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) for meeting with me today to discuss how we can best oversee the Postal Service, as well as Senators Cortez Masto and Rosen for their part in helping to finally organize a sit-down meeting with officials from the Postal Service, despite months of requests. There is still much to be done in getting the justification for sending Nevada-addressed mail to another state before being sent back to Nevada for delivery.”
