Congress on Tuesday passed a sweeping bipartisan bill designed to overhaul the U.S. Postal Service’s (USPS) finances and operations with about $50 billion in financial relief over the span of a decade.

The Senate voted 79-19 for the bill, a month after the U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved the measure. It now heads to President Joe Biden’s desk for his signature.
