Tom Carper: “We are in a country where over half of the people in our country now are obese or on their way to being obese.”

I think the greatest way that the Commission can have an impact on that is probably through our rate-making authority.

People ask me what I am proudest of in my life, and I always say, raising three boys, with a big assist from their mom.

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.
