“I congratulate my teammates and all the winners as well as all the candidates who were willing to serve,” he added. “Now is the time for unity as we fight a hostile Congress, corporate privatizers, Wall Street greed and some in postal management who are bent on destroying the Postal Service – through piece-by-piece privatization and by degrading mail service.”
