WASHINGTON — At a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing Wednesday, Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, criticized the State Department over the time it is taking for Americans to get their passports, and renewed his call for in-person passport services in Salt Lake City.
Given the updates in technology available, Romney said the amount of time it takes to get a passport is "unreasonable." "We have 200 people right now that are working through my office for emergency help," he said. "We have four people in our office that are doing nothing besides emergency passport requests."
