16 Dem States, Green Groups Sue USPS For Buying Gas-Powered Mail Trucks

usps mail delivery truckA coalition of 16 Democratic state attorneys general and several environmental groups sued the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) on Thursday, alleging the agency cut corners to justify its purchase of gas vehicles.

Both lawsuits alleged that the USPS conducted a “flawed” environmental analysis in 2021 before moving ahead with a program to replace its aging fleet mainly with traditional gas-powered delivery trucks.


The postal service’s Next Generation Delivery Vehicle (NGDV) plan failed to comply with even the “most basic requirements,” according to California Attorney General Rob Bonta, who led the state lawsuit with New York Attorney General Letitia James.

Your plan is not green ... horses fart methane ... which is bad even though we use methane to heat our homes, generate our electricity, and make gases for healthcare and industry.

There is no solution green enough for everybody.
