Story summary

Postmaster General David Steiner announced that the U.S. Postal Service has halted work on a controversial computer system developed under President Donald Trump's executive order, aimed at limiting voting by mail. This decision follows Supreme Court rulings striking down the executive order and issuing injunctions against implementing it. The suspension was confirmed in an interview with The Associated Press, where Steiner, who previously worked as CEO of Waste Management, emphasized his agency’s role as independent from political directives despite navigating financial hardships and political turbulence caused by Trump's policies. Unlike Trump, who criticized the court decisions, Steiner avoided commenting on the rulings' merits or implications for voter eligibility ahead of critical midterm elections in November.
