The U.S. Postal Service is an essential public service that Americans, small businesses, and government agencies rely upon.

My constituents like the constituents in every congressional district relies on the USPS for timely delivery.
These issues have prevented senior citizens in their apartments from receiving medication and Social Security.
I'm glad to see that we are taking the recent troubles in Postal Service performance seriously.
