(CNN) United States Postal Service Postmaster General Louis DeJoy hired four people who previously worked for his businesses to work with him at USPS in June, according to documents obtained by American Oversight through a FOIA request and viewed by CNN. DeJoy began working as postmaster general on June 15. In the following two weeks, he brought on four people who had previously worked at his companies to be his chief of staff, executive administrator and senior executive advisers at USPS. The documents also show that DeJoy's base salary as postmaster general is $303,460. DeJoy has argued that his changes to USPS are designed to save the organization money in the short and long term.
