Groups that want the U.S. Postal Service to buy
more electric delivery vehicles are suing to halt
purchases of thousands of gas-powered trucks as
the agency modernizes its mail delivery fleet.
Two lawsuits, filed Thursday in New York and
California, ask judges to order a more thorough
environmental review before the Postal Service
moves forward with the next-generation delivery
vehicle program.
Plaintiffs contend that purchases of fossil
fuel-powered delivery vehicles will cause
environmental harm for decades to come.
