#SCOTUS rules the #PostalService can't be sued, even when #mail is intentionally not delivered

A divided Supreme Court Tues ruled citizens can’t sue the #USPS, even when employees deliberately refuse to deliver mail.

By a 5-4 vote, the justices ruled against a Texas landlord, Lebene Konan, who alleges her mail was intentionally withheld for 2 years. Konan, who is #Black, claims racial #prejudice played a role in postal employees’ actions.

Congress passed the law against such suits a long time ago...
