As the House prepares to vote on fully restoring USPS operations, I'm thinking about those of you who have emailed and called—deeply concerned about how the Trump administration's sabotage of the Postal Service is hurting your families.

Here's what you've told me:

You've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on health care as millions of families get their prescriptions and medications in the mail.

You've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on democracy and our elections as millions plan to safely and securely vote-by-mail—as we've been doing for years in Washington state.

You've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on workers and small businesses as they try to survive this pandemic by shipping their goods to customers in communities across the country—and throughout the world.

You've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on financial stability as payments and checks are being delayed during the already dire economic circumstances of this pandemic.

You've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on your safety during COVID-19 as we follow public health guidance and stay home, trying our best to do our part to stop the spread of this deadly virus.

And you've told me that an attack on the USPS is an attack on veterans who rely on the Postal Service to receive medications and other critical deliveries from the VA.
