WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump's Postmaster General Louis DeJoy will testify before a Senate panel Friday after he abruptly paused operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service amid criticisms the moves would hinder the delivery of mail-in ballots in November's election.DeJoy drew strong objections from Democrats and Republicans over the Postal Service's cost-cutting measures, which Democrats in Congress said included cuts in overtime and other steps that have led to delivery delays. Postal Service changes paused:Postmaster General DeJoy says he will stop Postal Service changes until after November electionMore:Where you can vote by mail, absentee ballot in the 2020 electionDemocrats say DeJoy's changes at Postal Service have slowed mail delivery and potentially threaten the agency's ability to handle a surge of mail-in ballots in the November election.The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has prompted many states to expand voting by mail to reduce crowds on Election Day and provide an alternative to in-person voting.Congressional Democrats sent DeJoy a 10-page letter Friday detailing the changes at the Postal Service they feared could delay the mail.
