Thomas R. Carper: “One of the things that Senator Capito and I try to do is develop consensus on difficult issues.”

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 usually default to the golden rule, and I think in this case it's a pretty good guide as well.

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.

We help make the rules for the country, and we do not do this by ourselves.
