One week after battling for amendments to a proposed bill
that included the closure of the U.S. Postal Service mail processing
facility in Easton, which serves the entire Eastern Shore, Senators
Barbara Mikulski and Ben Cardin this week received assurances the
facility will remain open.
On Tuesday, Mikulski and Cardin announced their advocacy to protect
mail delivery service standards in the U.S. Senate’s 21st Century Postal
Reform Act has led to changes in the bill that will assure Maryland
mail processing facilities, including the somewhat controversial
facility in Easton, will not be closed as anticipated. Mikulski and
Cardin on Tuesday received a letter from Postmaster General Patrick
Donahoe outlining the facilities that would remain open, including the
Easton facility.

Thank you Senators Cardin and Mikulski!
Mikulski/Cardin could have done a lot more for Mds lower bay islands to prevent the erosions happening.When they retire there will be no more islands in the lower bay except Tangier. So much for the so call heros.They will have to tranfer postmaster to the main land.What a savings that will be.As I have said before I quit being a democrat several yrs ago.I voted against them then and i will never vote the party lines again.Delaware is looking good evry yr.
I know alot of people could care less about the USPS, but I still use them all the time and I am glad that the Easton facility will remain open, thank you senators.
time to shut the whole archaic entity down! no need for it anymore! hell the pony express would do a better job for a lot less money!
