Sure. Boeing has done such a fine job lately with the 737 Max, failed rocket test software, and billions of cost overruns. Who doesn't love the military industrial complex? Keep the cash spigot open boys.
Representatives who pushed this bill forward: Kendra Horn (D-OK) and Brian Babin (R-TX).
Brian Babin's district is Texas 36th, encompassing much of Houston, Johnson Space Center, and many Boeing locations.

I pretty libertarian and I think some people can confuse privatization as being always libertarian. The problem is you can't have privatization without some amount of corruption / corporate welfare which will then lobby more effectively that a government agency for more funding. The right answer is to just cut the program.
Don't privatize the post office. Just get rid of it. Let people own their mailbox and let them send letters to each other via a private service.
IDK, maybe the postal system really only exists to make it easier for the government to get a hold of you. In which case I say double get rid of it.
