Trump Considers Scrapping USPS Electric Truck Deal
TL;DR
Donald Trump's transition team is considering canceling the U.S. Postal Service's contracts to electrify its delivery fleet, aligning with Trump's campaign promises to roll back President Biden's climate policies. This move could affect multi-billion dollar contracts with companies like Oshkosh Corp and Ford, which are set to supply tens of thousands of electric vehicles and charging stations. The USPS, an autonomous federal agency, faces legal challenges in severing these contracts, but Trump's administration is exploring its options to reverse Biden's decarbonization efforts.
