October
10, 2014Dear
Friends,
This week I had the opportunity
to visit two of Delmarva’s television stations, WMDT and WBOC. I hope many of you had a chance
to see the resulting stories, in which I discussed a
number of salient issues facing Delawareans
and Americans across the country and around the world today.
My
first stop was at WMDT, where I had the chance to sit down with Lenita Wesson and discuss the importance
of long-term transportation funding and comprehensive postal reform. It’s
critical that Congress bypasses partisan gridlock and passes both
a long-term
transportation plan that our states, cities, and businesses need
and a postal plan that would enable this American institution to do what it needs to do to grow and get
back to financial health.
Next
stop, I visited the WBOC studios. During my time with the news team, I had the opportunity to discuss
some of the challenges facing
our homeland, including the threat of the
terrorist extremists abroad and Ebola in West Africa. To hear some of my thoughts on those issues, watch
here:
I always
enjoy having the opportunity to share my thoughts
with Delawareans – but more important, I appreciate hearing
the thoughts of Delawareans like you. As always, I welcome hearing your views on these issues, or any
other, through email
or by contacting me on Twitter @SenatorCarper
and on Facebook at facebook.com/tomcarper.
Sincerely,
