Eleanor Holmes Norton: “If we do not pass a postal bill, a lot of the testimony we are hearing today may be quite moot.”

I have written to the Postal Service many times in recent years about issues in the District of Columbia, including mail being stolen, burned, or otherwise destroyed, lost, or not delivered.

With this bill, House Republicans have intentionally committed nothing short of fiscal sabotage against D.C.

This bill would establish a commonsense process to ensure that qualified nominees are not indefinitely delayed by Senate inaction.

I will use every tool at my disposal to stop these riders from becoming law, and I commit to reminding my fellow lawmakers across the aisle that D.C. residents deserve the same consideration as their own constituents at every opportunity.
