The people’s post office
Has anyone heard from Cathy McMorris Rodgers regarding Trump’s and the GOP’s efforts to kill our postal service? To my knowledge it is the only governmental agency required to fund itself. It is our Post Office and our tax dollars should help it survive.
I get medications in the mail as do many of us. Cathy’s office told me it’s up to individual states how voting goes, refusing to come out publicly in support of mail-in ballots and funding the post office. She can’t upset Trump as she is the state’s honorary co-chairman of Trump’s re-election campaign. She has won handily here with mail-in voting. She is willing to sacrifice our mail service along with a lot of other American rights. You can’t talk to anybody at her offices, it’s all “leave a message please,” after espousing the great privilege of representing us.
How about representing us and protecting our postal service, Cathy?
