John Dorsey and 19 others have signed recently.

The Issue

Residents of Arlington, Virginia are experiencing ongoing problems with U.S. mail delivery. On multiple routes, important and time-sensitive mail is being delayed for days—and in some cases, weeks—even after those same pieces appear in United States Postal Service Informed Delivery notifications. These delays affect critical documents such as bills, legal notices, medical correspondence, government communications, and financial statements.

This situation is unacceptable and disruptive. We are calling on United States Postal Service (USPS) leadership to take swift action to address these issues.

  • Investigate persistent delivery delays: Investigate causes of recurring delays on affected Arlington routes
  • Provide transparent communication: Regular updates and clear communication regarding service disruptions
  • Restore predictable service: Ensure predictable, timely, and consistent mail delivery; and
  • Implement accountability measures: Establish systems to monitor service performance and prevent recurring failures


By signing this petition, you'll be urging USPS to take the necessary actions to restore reliable mail delivery to our community. Your support is crucial to effect meaningful change and ensure dependable, timely mail service for all Arlington residents. Please add your voice and sign this petition instead of b*ching on Nextdoor. Together, we can demand the USPS address these critical issues affecting our community.
