Testifying before a congressional panel, Potter asked to kill a requirement that the postal service deliver mail Monday through Saturday, according to AP.

Hungry restaurants and shops improve service to keep customers

Do you think customer service has improved? Are you being treated better where you shop and dine? A reporter may contact you for a story. Or you can email the reporter directly at ktagami@ajc.com.
