Senator Grassley Press Release

Tuesday, April 5, 2005

Senator Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, held a press conference this morning acknowledging his concern that the USPS is not enforcing the law which he introduced in 2002. As he stated, "This law does not allow air carriers to discriminate against live chicks. If the carrier provides shipment for any live animals, it must provide the service for day-old chicks".

A formal letter was sent by the Senator to Mr. Paul Vogel, Vice President Network Operations of the USPS discussing this and other similar matters. An update will be presented here as soon as more details are known.
