DHL hearings receive key support
House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee Ranking Member John Mica, R-Fla., today sent a letter expressing support for hearings on the proposed deal between UPS and DHL, said Rep. Mike Turner, R-Centerville.
Mica’s letter was addressed to Committee Chairman James Oberstar, D-Minn., and was a response to a letter from Turner and the rest of the Ohio delegation requesting hearings.
Turner said the letter will bolster the likelihood of hearings.
“Ranking Member Mica’s support for hearings is a critical step,” Turner said. “This deal, if it is allowed to be completed, would have consequences beyond it’s devastating impact on our local, state, and national economy. It would also remove a major element of the North American shipping market. This is why congressional hearings into this issue are so important.”
Mica’s home state of Florida is the home of ASTAR, an air cargo company that has nearly 1,000 employees in the Wilmington hub.
