USPS spent $110 million reprocessing mail they had misrouted over seven months in 2020

The Golden Horseshoe is a weekly designation from Just the News intended to highlight egregious examples of wasteful taxpayer spending by the government. The ward is named for the horseshoe-shaped toilet seats for military airplanes that cost the Pentagon a whopping $640 each back in the 1980s. 

This week, our award is going to the United States Postal Service (USPS) for spending $110 million over seven months in 2020 attempting to reprocess, rehandle, and redirect misrouted mail.

According to an inspector general report released last week, a recent audit of the mail agency identified “misrouted mail as the number one cause for service failure.” Three of the inspector general’s main recommendations suggest just how avoidable most of last year’s misrouted mail mishaps really were.
