                RECOGNIZING BILLINGS, MT, POSTAL SERVICE

  Mr. BAUCUS. Madam President, today I would like to recognize the 
outstanding achievement of the Postal Service in Billings, MT. As is 
the case most of the time, we know how to do it right in Montana.
  Billings' delivery of overnight first-class mail is first in the 
Nation, No. 1. The lucky residents of Billings received their mail 94 
percent on time, the country's highest performance level this year. The 
score also ties for the highest mark achieved by any city since the 
measurement began. In an era when public and private mail volume 
continues to increase, I am proud of the ability of the Billings Postal 
Service to rise above the rest and top the Nation.
  I would like to congratulate and thank everyone involved in the mail 
process in Billings for serving Montana and our Nation with such 
capability.
