A federal judge in Washington state on Thursday temporarily blocked operational changes that new Postmaster General Louis DeJoy is making to the struggling U.S. Postal Service (USPS), claiming plaintiffs in a lawsuit will likely succeed.

A coalition of states filed a lawsuit this month seeking to block the changes, claiming they unlawfully interfered with states’ authority granted by the U.S. Constitution to manage their own elections.
