> Give me a break. If the admin wants the postal service to go EV, pay for it. The very fact that the USPS remains solvent under the conditions they are forced to operate is a damn miracle. Put up or shut up.

From the article:

> President Biden's social spending package proposal unveiled last year included $6 billion for the USPS to purchase new vehicles, but that proposal is still being debated in Congress.

So it looks like the administration has, in fact, tried to "put up".

Shouldn't they secure that funding before they require this?

Are you under the impression that the Biden administration has required that the USPS go with EVs? Because that doesn't seem to have happened. If you are referring to some other requirement, maybe you should clarify what you're talking about.
