Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) announced that he is introducing the Postmaster General Reform Act, which would change how U.S. postmaster generals are appointed and how long they serve. The bill would make the postmaster general a presidentially appointed position instead of a board-appointed position, with advice and consent from the Senate. The postmaster general would also have a term limit of five years, which may be renewed.
