Before heading to the President’s desk, the Postal Service Reform Act enjoyed a rare wave of bipartisan support, easily clearing the Senate in a 79-19 vote after passing in the House 342-92.
The co-sponsors of the legislation — which included Democrats, Rep. Carolyn Maloney and Sen. Gary Peters, as well as Republicans, Rep. Jim Comer and Sen. Rob Portman — praised the bill signing.
“This historic law will finally get the Postal Service on sustainable financial footing after decades of decline,” said Maloney, a New York representative. “I am proud to have negotiated this bill across party lines and to have worked hand-in-hand with Ranking Member Comer, Chairman Peters, and Ranking Member Portman.”
