Channel 2 Action News has been reporting for months on the problems faced by Georgia families and businesses waiting weeks for their mail and packages to be delivered.

Even the postal workers sent us this video showing the regional matrix sorteror a MARS machine malfunction, sending mail and packages from the conveyor belt onto the floor.

It’s a video like that, along with complaints from people all over north Georgia, that have lawmakers angry with USPS Postmaster General Louis DeJoy.

“Postmaster General DeJoy’s refusal to cooperate with basic Senate oversight is puzzling and disturbing. This suggests that in addition to being incompetent in delivering the mail on time, he does not care about Georgians in distress because of his incompetence,” Ossoff said in a statement to Channel 2 Action News earlier this month .
