From the Hill:
Key lawmakers have expressed concern that the Postal Service’s top regulator is spending too much time on the road at a time when the agency faces serious financial challenges.
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, and Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.) have suggested that Ruth Goldway’s trips are hampering the Postal Regulatory Commission’s (PRC) ability to offer advice about proposals that would change how mail is delivered in the United States.
Goldway, who has served as chairwoman of the PRC since 2009, is currently attending a postal event in Switzerland, her third trip to that country in the past year. She has also traveled, in that same time span, to Belgium, China, Portugal, Puerto Rico and Scotland.
