Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 18, 2020

Sen.Dick Durbin
Aug. 18, 2020
Tweet - "While Postmaster General DeJoy dreams up new ways to slow down @USPS delivery, veterans are left waiting for prescriptions. I'm joining @SenateDems to demand that DeJoy reverse operational changes that are delaying critical medication delivery for our veterans."
