WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran says Wichita will keep its U.S. Postal Service processing center.
Moran said in a statement that he spoke to Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who assured him the processing center would not be closed or consolidated.
Many Kansans, including postal workers, expressed concern about processing being moved to a larger location such as Kansas City.
“I have heard from Kansans across the state who are concerned about their mail being delayed by proposed changes to the USPS,” Moran said in a statement. “The Wichita processing center helps move mail across south central Kansas, making certain folks receive their prescriptions, packages, paychecks and more in a timely manner.”
Moran added that the USPS is planning to improve the Wichita facility. In 2022, Moran helped introduce and pass the Postal Service Reform Act.
