Enduring and beloved institutions. The United StatesPostal Service. Entitiese few specifically mentioned by our founders in the constitution. The Postal Service delivers more than 470 million pieces of mail each day to every home and business across the United States. Lifelinees a critical to using critical medicine, supplies, and mail for every american, no matter where you live. Words. I will not mince the Postal Service is under attack. Newspapers from every corner of the country have seen the stories and pictures. Mail is being delayed by day and sometimes even weeks. Sorting equipment is being ripped out of postal facilities and thrown into dumpsters. Are being removed from street corners. Overtime is being denied for our postal carriers, who are some of our most essential workers during the coronavirus crisis. This didnt happen by accident. It was intentional. This happened because President Trump has been blocking critical funding for the Postal Services now four months. Hishe has handpicked postmaster general is using this back his handpicked postmaster general is using this to have sweeping and damaging practices that are degrading postal operations before our eyes. Last week, President Trump admitted on National Television blocking 25een million 25 billion in critical assistance requested by the Postal Service because he wants to hobble mailin voting. Think about that for a minute. That is about the most undemocratic action i could think of. Whats worse instead of supporting funding to strengthen an institution that is vital to every american, the Trump Administration is going in the opposite direction. Dismantling longstanding policies and procedures with disastrous consequences. , and will not stand by and let that happen. Tuesday as part of our day of action to save the post office, more than 100 House Democrats hosted events in our district to support the Postal Service, its mission, and postal workers. We have requested a host of document from the postmaster general which are due this week. We have called him to testify before our committee on monday morning. In addition, this saturday the house will convene for a special session to vote on my bill, the delivering for america at. This legislation will do two important things. First, it will provide the 25 billion the post office requested, which was supported unanimously by the Postal Service board of governors, all of whom were appointed by President Trump. And, it will return delivery standards to the way they were before the postmasters general sweeping changes. We want the postmaster general to undo the damage he has already done. Put back the sorting machines and mailboxes he has removed. Prioritized official election mail as itst class previously was. Every member of congress should support this bill. This is not a partisan issue. Republicans across the country have expressed their own serious concern about these delays. Makesesidents statement absolutely no sense to impose these kinds of dangerous cut in the middle of a pandemic. Just months before the elections of november. Ist is happening right now impacting everyone in rural and urban communities among seniors, veterans, small businesses, families across the country. I believe the American People want their mail left alone. They want to go back to the way things were before all these changes began. They certainly dont want the Postal Service to be politicized. Our legislation achieves all of these goals. I hope the American People continue letting representatives know how they deal. Thank you. In 1952 the korean war continued, the u. S.
