White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters Wednesday that as the administration deals with widespread supply chain issues, it cannot guarantee Christmas packages will arrive on time.

“We are not the Postal Service or UPS or FedEx,” Psaki said in response to a question about packages arriving on time or products being available during the holiday season. “We cannot guarantee. What we can do is use every lever at the federal government’s disposal to reduce delays.”
