During a recent government meeting, concerns were raised regarding the United States Postal Service (USPS) performance in North Georgia, where on-time delivery of first-class mail has plummeted to just 36%. This alarming statistic has significant implications, particularly for seniors relying on timely delivery of prescriptions, small businesses awaiting supplies, and citizens missing critical court documents.

The Postmaster General acknowledged the USPS's shortcomings in serving Georgia constituents, prompting pointed questions from officials about the reasons behind this failure. Mr. Zollars, a board member during the planning of the controversial \"Delivering for America\" plan, faced scrutiny over the execution of changes that included consolidating regional distribution centers. While he admitted to execution problems, he distanced himself from the specifics of the Atlanta consolidation, stating he was not on the board at that time.

The discussion highlighted a lack of accountability within USPS management, as Zollars could not identify who was responsible for executing the complex changes. This absence of leadership has raised concerns about the effectiveness of the USPS's operational strategies. In response to the pressing issues, Zollars committed to investigating the execution failures and promised to maintain open lines of communication with concerned officials.

Despite the challenges, there have been indications of improvement in USPS performance following bipartisan pressure from Congress. The meeting underscored the urgent need for effective oversight and accountability within the USPS to ensure reliable service for all constituents, particularly in regions like North Georgia that have been disproportionately affected.
