Debates in Congress on Post Office Inquiry and Related Bills
The Senate resumes Grundy’s post office inquiry debate with strong prompts for adoption while Hendricks and Clayton present opposing views. House discussions focus on Indiana land office, Randolph salary, and various DC rail and public works bills. Over several days, votes, amendments, and proposed printing matters shape the legislative path, with events through February 14 including adjournments and committee actions.
