BALTIMORE — Maryland is joining a multistate coalition in filing a federal lawsuit over operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service, Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh announced Tuesday.
Frosh said the changes threaten critical mail delivery and could undermine the national election in November.
The Postal Service cuts -- including eliminating staff overtime, altering operations at state distribution centers and removing critical mail sorting equipment -- threaten the timely delivery of mail to individuals who rely on the Postal Service for everything from medical prescriptions to ballots, Frosh said. The attorney general said changes also include requiring late-arriving mail to be left for delivery the following day.
"(President Donald) Trump's attacks on the Postal Service are designed to disrupt the election. They strike at the core of our democracy," Frosh said in a statement. "That is bad enough, but Trump and (Postmaster General Louis) DeJoy are also hurting innocent bystanders: Americans who are waiting for their medicine or their Social Security checks. This conduct is harmful, illegal and unconstitutional. We are filing suit to stop it."
Frosh said the Postal Service has also announced plans to stop processing outgoing mail at some state mail distribution centers: "This would disproportionately impact rural communities, often significantly increasing the distance mail must travel. For example, mail sent from one address to another in the same town would have to travel all the way to one of the remaining distribution centers and back again before being delivered."

Andy Harris just helped Cecil county executive elect Danielle Hornberger get away with to federal felonies during the Election primary. Falsifying campign documents and harvesting votes from around the county. This politicians have no shame or Honor. Just like wicomico county. All corrupt in and out of office.
Frosh is a left wing hack who takes his orders from Bloomberg and Soros not the people of MD. This man is a disgusting piece of crap that loves open borders, late term abortions, LGBT agenda , BLM, sanctuary cities and hates the USA and all it stands for !
usps will remain as is until after the election in November.
No need for any changes to USPS, it’s crazy....the price of stamps, envelopes, boxes and services, it’s why we doing everything online and have gone paperless!
Frost is a political hack that is using free lawyers to chase this kind of BS who are donated from George Soros funded groups. It’s almost surreal, unpaid private lawyers representing the State of Maryland citizens...The state won’t waste their own money but they will waste someone else’s to try and move Frosts political agenda. it’s now just crazy town.
Post office said non of this is happening and post office is sitting on several billion from the government. This is worse then blazey ford or Russia gate. Complete lie.
Another MD knee jerk libturd reaction its all we get from MD leaders.take take take..well im moving moving moving out
This is a made up by MSM non-story.
Frosh is Anderton with a law degree.
It would be nice if Frosh worked on problems here in Maryland. Gangs, drugs, murders and such. I'd bet he sits alone at night and cries because Donald Trump is president. What a clown. Is it possible for people in Maryland to sue Frosh for not doing his job? Or having him removed from office due to TDS.(Trump Derangement Syndrome) Gov. Hogan won't be much help because he also has TDS.
Notice how often Frosh is suing the Federal government?
What the heck is his job supposed to be anyway?
I bet he kneels when in front of Soros.
