your constituents will not get mail on a regular basis if it's privatized.

It is simply wrong to put such a partisan political insider in charge of the Postal Service, especially in an election year.

I respectfully ask the committee to make a formal referral to the U.S. Attorney's Office to investigate whether Louis DeJoy's testimony violated 18 U.S.C. 1001 of the Criminal Code.

Never before have I seen a Postmaster General undermine the Postal Service's ability to do its work; by undertaking the kind of drastic and ill-informed operational changes that our current Postmaster General, Mr. DeJoy, has instituted in…

To return faith in our democracy and put our protections back, we need to have H.R. 1, the For the People Act, enacted.

But we should also be, and what I thought we were looking at, was making sure that the United States Postal Service provides the good service that they do for a very, very long period.

For the record, that $25 billion was the recommendation of, of all people, the Postal Board of Governors.

a sharp decline in service since week 41

The Post Office should be a bipartisan, nonpartisan position that serves the American people.

I'm asking that the Democrats and the Republicans on this committee ask Senator McConnell to bring this bill to a vote before the Senate.

Those are the things we should be discussing. We should be discussing how we work together across the aisle to make sure that those things are accomplished.

I would point out, for the record, that the payroll of the Postal Service, every two weeks, is $2 billion-plus.

What should scare every American who believes that the Postal Service should not be an arm of any campaign is that Mr. DeJoy, in his official capacity, continues to conceal his secret coordination with Trump campaign associates.

I find Mr. Jordan and Mr. von Spakovsky references to human beings as illegal aliens as offensive.

I look forward to their joining us in opposing voter suppression that dilutes votes.

The Postal Service Board of Governors is required by law to represent the public interest, not the President, not a political party, or not even the Postmaster General.

Well, my, my, my. You're right. You've been on the job 70 days and you've caused this much ruckus.

The Postal Service is not only fighting for its economic survival; it's fighting to maintain 120 years of professional service.

We have an obligation constitutionally to ensure that something that's been part of the American fabric since 1775 has a future.

I was proud to cosponsor your bill that passed the House with 26 Republicans showing the courage to address an emergency.

We just heard more of the same on the other side of the aisle, denial and disinformation. And I find it particularly ironic that my friend from North Carolina would cite the unanimous decision of the Board of Governors. Well, guess what…
