Statement from Congressman Brian Higgins on William Street Mail Facility Job Posting

“The sign outside the William Street mail processing facility may say they deliver jobs but it seems to me these days the United States Postal Service is much better at delivering confusion and mixed messages. This could be a poster for the pervasive tone deaf bureaucratic disconnection from the public. On one hand they are providing little information but asking Western New Yorkers to trust that a shut-down is necessary; and yet their job posting seems to tell another story, one that certainly implies that the volume in Buffalo is there to support 50 additional jobs.

“Don’t get me wrong, I am all about creating jobs in Western New York but this sign is a slap in the face to the 700 employees preparing to lose their jobs at the hands of the USPS that has to walk through those doors every day.”
