Thomas R. Carper: “I felt forever that there's actually revenues opportunities for the Postal Service through vote by mail.”

Not really. I have just come from the Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee, which is having a hearing on the Key Bridge, the bridge in Baltimore that was badly damaged.

Last year, the Environment and Public Works Committee held, I think, not one, but a couple of hearings on permitting, common theme at our hearings, on the importance of public engagement.

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