"They are old friends," she added.
In a Dec. 15 letter, Brady told Gene Dodaro, acting U.S. comptroller general, that "Gallagher has assured me that he will not only conduct a thorough and exhaustive investigation but he will institute changes to correct serious problems at the facility."
In a Dec. 5 letter to Dodaro, Brady said he was aware of an investigation by the Postal Service's Office of Inspector General, "but the level of concern being raised" requires the GAO to investigate. *
