'As the USPS forges ahead with its ill-conceived and controversial decision to pollute communities across the nation,' said SierraClub, 'we demand to see the details surrounding the agency's decision.'

With their filing on Thursday, Sierra Club and Elders Climate Action alleged that the USPS is"improperly withholding records" related to the Oshkosh contract, which is worth billions of dollars.

Sierra Club and Elders Climate Action filed their initial FOIA request for records surrounding the agreement more than a year ago. Demanding more transparency from the agency, Maloney requested that the Postal Service turn over"all documents and communications, including all analyses, related to the determination of a planned 90/10 split of gas-powered vehicles to electric vehicles."legislation that would toss out the Postal Service's environmental impact review of the new vehicle agreement and force the agency to conduct a new assessment.
