GOP Looks To Claw Back Money For USPS EV Trucks

Why? Well, you see

DOGE lawmakers look to defund Biden’s anemic-paced $3B EV postal truck ‘boondoggle’

Two top DOGE lawmakers are introducing a bill to claw back $3 billion authorized under former President Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act, which was designated to create an electric vehicle (EV) fleet for the United States Postal Service (USPS).

A South Carolina defense contractor responsible for the 60,000-vehicle order was already “far behind schedule” as of November. A Washington Post exposé revealed that by then, fewer than 100 of these vehicles had been delivered to USPS.

Citing that, Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, DOGE Caucus chair, and Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, will be forwarding the “Return to Sender Act,” seeking to recoup what is about 30% of the overall appropriation in Biden’s law that was intended to be geared toward reducing inflation.

The Postal Service was to receive an initial order of 50,000 EV delivery trucks from defense contractor Oshkosh within the next three years, but only 93 had been produced by November, according to the Post.

“The order needs to be canceled with the unspent money returned to sender, the taxpayers. I am defunding this billion-dollar boondoggle to stamp out waste in Washington. Tax dollars should always be treated with first-class priority.”

93. They do not know what they are doing. In fairness, a lot of delivery folks for the USPS like the limited number they have received. But, there’s no way they can get serious numbers any reasonable time frame

“Three years later, taxpayers are still waiting while the Postal Service refuses to provide basic transparency on where the money went. The Return to Sender Act takes back the $3 billion in taxpayer money that has been wasted in this project,” Cloud said.

If they won’t be transparent, then the head honchos need to be dragged in front of Congress and cited with contempt if they won’t answer. Further, the bill is meant to end all unobligated money from the BS Inflation Reduction Act.

    Makes sense. The US Government should cancel non-performing contracts or even contracts where they just changed their minds and decide to not print money to pay for unnecessary purchases.

    Geez Rimjob, now we’ll never know why you’re such a sorry fat bitch.

    Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins in a post on X announced that the USDA is canceling a $600,000 grant toward this research project which is being conducted by the Southern University Agricultural & Mechanical College in Louisiana.

    Connies are such stupid liars!

    Summary
    Menarche, the first occurrence of menstruation, occurs at approximately 12 years of age and ends with menopause at roughly 51 years of age (Norman, 2014). A woman will have a monthly menstrual cycle for about 40 years of her life averaging to about 450 periods over the course of her lifetime (Nappi, et al, 2016). It is also important to recognize that transgender men and people with masculine gender identities, intersex and non-binary persons may also menstruate (Weiselberg 2022). At any given moment about 26% of the world’s population is menstruating (Barrington et al. 2021). This integrated project involves research, extension, and teaching components proposed to address the growing concerns and issues surrounding menstruation, including the potential health risks posed to users of synthetic feminine hygiene products (FHP), advancing research in the development of FHP that use natural materials, as well as providing menstrual hygiene management (MHM) education for young women and girls.The specific objectives of this project are:a) to produce three natural fibers; regenerative cotton, regenerative wool and industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa);b) to develop patents for sustainable feminine hygiene sanitary products using the three natural fibers;c) to evaluate the FHP made from each of the natural fibers in comparison to the standard synthetic product;d) to educate young women and girls about MHM through an extension program;e) to enhance instruction for students in the College of Agricultural, Family and Consumer Sciences andf) to provide a local fiber processing center for fiber growers in Louisiana.

    MAGAts seem unable to translate those mysterious markings on pages!! Their stupidity hurts Louisisana.

      Jeff,
      I hate to tell you, but you are the stupid. Women have known for some time about mensuration. We also have abundant cotton, check your history.

      But Southern? I am not sure of their current status, but their diploma is worthless. Their research is a joke, much like yours. Likely this was a voter pay off.
