INDIANAPOLIS, IN — The Postal Service Indiana District hosted a visit by Postmaster General Louis DeJoy today. DeJoy met with district leadership to discuss the ongoing implementation of the Postal Service’s bold and innovative 10-year Plan known as Delivering for America.

During the visit, DeJoy also administered the Oath of Office for over 40 newly named Postmasters in the Indiana District. The group included Indianapolis Postmaster Keith Blane, a 40-year postal employee.

DeJoy shared information about Delivering for America at the annual Postal Forum this week. In his opening remarks DeJoy said the Postal Service’s vision for the future includes becoming the preferred delivery provider in the country by:

• Delivering mail and packages to each American household and business six and seven days a week in a reliable and affordable manner;
• Establishing easily accessible USPS retail centers in every community;
• Building a modern processing and transportation network with technology enabled carriers using new vehicles;
• Having postmasters serve as leaders of commerce in local communities;
• Being a preferred employer with a stable and vibrant workforce with established career paths; and
• Operating with precision and covering the organization’s costs.

Our Delivering for America plan makes the necessary changes that ensure the Postal Service evolves and thrives in the changing American economy. We are on the move and racing with ambition toward success in serving the American people,” said DeJoy. “We are confident that we will deliver a United States Postal Service that plays an important role in the future American economy.”

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products, and services to fund its operations.
