Rep. Steve Scalise: Pelosi’s USPS Efforts Are a ‘Money Grab’

EXCERPT:

SCALISE: “Interesting, how the speaker has been trying to literally hold hostages for families and businesses, it won’t bring house back in for that but when it comes to continuing desire to get -- and we're not talking about enough money to keep post office running, no revenues have actually been up since the pandemic. She's been trying to get about $75 billion. And keep in mind, the total budget is about that amount for the entire year. So, you know she has been trying to make a money grab for a long time, well before COVID, she's just once again trying to take advantage of a crisis. The post office is delivering the mail. If every American voted by mail would it represent maybe two percent increase over what they did just in June of this year. So, this isn’t about whether or not post office can deliver mail, that is going to be taken care regardless, it's about Nancy Pelosi just trying to grab more money and leveraging and holding families hostages and businesses hostage during this pandemic.”
