Senate Republicans cannot force US Postal Service to scrap EVs, parliamentarian says

By David Shepardson WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Senate Republicans cannot force the U.S. Postal Service to scrap thousands of electric vehicles and charging equipment in a massive tax and budget bill, the Senate parliamentarian said late on Sunday. The U.S. Postal Service currently has 7,200 electric vehicles, made up of Ford e-Transit vehicles and specially built Next Generation Delivery Vehicles built by Oshkosh Defense. USPS warned on June 13 that scrapping the electric vehicles would cost it $1.5 billion, including $1 billion to replace its current fleet of EVs and $500 million in EV infrastructure rendered useless and "seriously cripple our ability to replace an aging and obsolete delivery fleet." Senate parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough, whose role is to ensure lawmakers follow proper legislative procedure, said a provision to force the sale could not be approved via a simple majority vote in the Republican-controlled chamber and will instead need a 60-vote supermajority, according to Democrats on the Senate Budget Committee. She ruled last week that Republicans cannot use the bill to overturn landmark rules to drastically reduce vehicle emissions and boost EV sales. Senate Republicans have also sought to reclaim more than $1 billion out of $3 billion Congress gave USPS in 2023 as part of a $430 billion climate bill to buy EVs and charging infrastructure - including $1.2 billion for electric vehicles. USPS told Congress "summarily removing all electric vehicles and charging infrastructure would hobble our ability to deliver to the American people, it would directly harm our ability to serve your constituents, and it would waste crucial funds for no reasonable purpose." Replacing the current 7,200 electric vehicles would directly cost the Postal Service at least $450 million and USPS has also spent $540 million on electrical infrastructure upgrades "which is literally buried under parking lots, and there is no market for used charging equipment," the company added. USPS would also face significant costs from Oshkosh for halting EV purchases under its contract. USPS said in December that purchases in 2025 would be around "50-50" EVs and gas-powered. USPS plans to buy some 66,000 electric vehicles by 2028. Senate Republicans argued scrapping EVs would "focus USPS on delivering mail and not achieving the environmental aims pushed by the Biden administration." In March, the White House forced out Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, who led efforts to restructure the money-losing U.S. Postal Service for nearly five years. USPS has lost more than $100 billion since 2007. David Steiner, a FedEx board member and former CEO of Waste Management, has been named as incoming postmaster general. President Donald Trump said in February he was considering merging the Postal Service with the Commerce Department, a move Democrats said would violate federal law.

Dow futures slide 200 points as oil rises following U.S. bombing of Iran: Live updates

Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City on June 18, 2025. Timothy A. Clary | Afp | Getty Images Stock futures fell ahead of Monday's session after the United States entered Israel's war against Iran over the weekend by striking three nuclear sites, a move by President Donald Trump that raised oil prices and risked a bigger conflict in the Middle East. Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 159 points, or 0.4%. S&P 500 futures shed 0.4% and Nasdaq 100 futures lost 0.5%. The U.S. launched attacks Saturday at Iranian sites in Fordo, Isfahan and Natanz, surprising investors who were expecting more diplomacy to possibly take place after Trump said on Friday that he would make a decision to attack Iran "within the next two weeks," according to the White House. Oil prices have already spiked in recent weeks following the increased tensions in the Middle East. On Sunday night, U.S. crude oil futures rose another 3.8% to nearly $77 a barrel. "When you have conflict, you have an overreaction — a knee jerk reaction — which tends to be an exaggeration, that can last up to two to three weeks," said Jay Woods, chief global strategist at Freedom Capital Markets. "With Ukraine, the S&P 500 sold off 6% and oil spiked dramatically." Trump said in a Saturday evening speech from the White House after the attacks, that "there will be either peace, or there will be tragedy for Iran far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days." Now traders braced for Iran's retaliation. The country could target U.S. personnel in nearby bases or close the Strait of Hormuz, which would majorly disrupt global oil flows. A prolonged blocking of the strait could boost oil prices above $100 per barrel. In a Sunday interview, with Fox News, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called for the Chinese government to step in and prevent Iran from closing the key trade route. China remains Iran's most important oil customer. "Now with the US fully engaged in the conflict, the baseline for oil prices has shifted to the mid $80s range per barrel entering stage two from one-side regional conflict to US managed conflict," said Ahmad Assiri of Pepperstone. "Even if Iran doesn't physically close the strait or attack oil tanks, the mere increase in probability from about 5% to around 15% will itself create a premium in crude prices." The S&P 500 lost 0.15% last week for its second negative week in a row. Despite this soft patch, the benchmark closed Friday about 3% from a record. The spike in oil prices and a greater war in the Middle East adds another threat to the stock market and the economy, already dealing with a rushed remaking of global trade by Trump this year.
