Moran: Wichita will Keep its USPS Processing Center

WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) today released the following statement after U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy assured Sen. Moran that the Wichita U.S. Postal Service (USPS) processing center will not be closed or consolidated:

"I have heard from Kansans across the state who are concerned about their mail being delayed by proposed changes to the USPS. 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. I spoke with the Postmaster General this week, and he assured me that the Wichita processing center is not going to be closed nor consolidated. Mail processing and cancellation will continue to occur in Wichita, and USPS intends to improve processing capabilities in Wichita in the future to better serve south central Kansas."

Sen. Moran helped introduced and pass the Postal Service Reform Act of 2022 to help improve and sustain the United States Postal Service (USPS), particularly for rural communities.
