POTUS signed the Postal Service Reform Act, finally ending the mandate that was crippling the @USPS. No other federal agency had to prefund its retirement benefits.

Moderates & rural Senators and Reps. seem to be especially very proud of this

DELIVERED: Our Postal Service Reform Act was just signed into law.

Proud to have worked across the aisle to get this done so Montanans can depend on a reliable and affordable USPS for years to come. It's a great day for Montana and for mail delivery across rural America. pic.twitter.com/Gp05Hquscw

So honored to be at the White House with @POTUS today as he signed the Postal Service Reform Act into law!

The bill will ensure the @USPS delivers more reliable service to all Americans, while protecting the benefits of our dedicated postal workers. pic.twitter.com/t9qSWbN3hi

Today, the President signed into law the bipartisan Postal Service Reform Act, which I helped introduce.

The postal service is a lifeline. Whether it’s mail from a grandchild or a prescription medication, USPS is the only service that delivers to every address in the country. pic.twitter.com/EBAHsMpS5z

MDers should be able to rely on @USPS, but recently that hasn't been the case. Now, w/ @POTUS' signature on the Postal Service Reform Act, we can improve USPS. But our work isn't done yet. I'll keep working w/ Team MD to bring reliable service back to MD. https://t.co/WYz9nVntZB

.@POTUS signs the Postal Service Reform Act—took 12 years but guarantees continued 6 day service, more transparency. Ben Franklin was 1st Postmaster Gen & saw @USPS as a way to knit the colonies into a nation. Today, it delivers about 4 million prescriptions daily & much more. pic.twitter.com/EY76fmTyrX

The Postal Service Reform Act will:

Help ensure timely deliveries
Impose new USPS transparency standards
Create an online dashboard that would show average delivery times by ZIP code
Help ensure the United States Post Office delivers the most reliable service
