Byrne said:Speaker Pelosi has reached a new low for political posturing in a Congress that will be forever known for Democrats' total and complete focus on defeating Donald Trump, not solving problems for the American people. Today's bill is in response to an imagined crisis that would undo changes at the Post Office that have already been undone and spend money the Post Office does not even need right now. Instead of going through the proper committee processes and actually making reforms to the bloated, antiquated Postal Service, Speaker Pelosi is throwing more taxpayer money at her allies and once again seeking to undermine President Trump. The American people deserve better than a House of Representatives that totally abdicates its responsibility to govern in order to seek more political power. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
