By Jordain Carney - 08/16/20 02:11 PM EDT

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said on Sunday that a key Senate panel should hold public hearings with U.S. Postal Service leadership and that the chamber should return early if the House passes related legislation.

Schumer, speaking a press conference in New York, said Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) should schedule a hearing with Postmaster General Louis DeJoy and USPS Board of Governors Chairman Robert Duncan.

If DeJoy refuses to testify, Schumer added that he should be removed from his job.
