Thomas R. Carper: “We will see you on the floor later today.”

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

I think that's really disgraceful, and it's unacceptable that the local DC courts have vacancies that last years because the Senate fails to act in a timely way.

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 want to thank our members for being here today.
