(Sioux Falls, SD) — David Steiner is set to become the 76th Postmaster General this month, replacing Louis DeJoy. Postal workers, especially here in South Dakota, are watching closely but remain hopeful. Steiner, a former FedEx board member, brings experience with package delivery and overnight service, which could benefit the Postal Service. South Dakota Postal Workers Union President Todd West says there’s concern over ongoing mail delays and fears about potential privatization, given Steiner’s FedEx background. But Steiner’s recent statement about keeping the Postal Service independent gives workers some encouragement. Steiner doesn’t have an official start date yet, but insiders say he could take over as soon as next week. Many like West hope he’ll address delays and bring positive change to the USPS.
