Postal Service pauses plan to close Wyoming mail processing centers

CHEYENNE — United States Postal Service Postmaster General Louis DeJoy announced Tuesday his intention to pause the planned changes to the mail delivery network that include closing the Cheyenne and Casper Processing and Distribution Centers.
The national restructuring plan calls for all Wyoming mail to be sent to Colorado or Montana for sorting, and then back to Wyoming communities for distribution.
DeJoy committed to pausing implementation of the plan, which the agency calls “Delivering for America,” until after Jan. 1, 2025.
DeJoy’s decision came in response to concerns expressed by federal lawmakers, including U.S. Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo.
