Thomas R. Carper: “Good morning, everybody. I am happy to call this hearing to order.”

Given how important this obviously is, my only regret is that we didn't have an opportunity to talk about it 24 hours ago.

I am the last Vietnam Veteran serving in the U.S. Senate, and kind of relates to my great affection and interest in the postal issues.

I felt forever that there's actually revenues opportunities for the Postal Service through vote by mail.

For too long, the seats have not been filled, and not been filled properly.
