In this video, you can see a crowd of Venice locals celebrating the news Saturday in the street, then cheering on the USPS worker as he passes by, carrying a package. At nearby Abbot Kinney, a dance party filled up the street and stopped traffic.

The crowd chants "U-S-P-S" and locals thanked the USPS for their service.

Venice wasn't the only place where this show of appreciation happened—similar kudos were shared in Brooklyn, too.

USPS had faced funding cut threats from President Donald Trump before the election, with the president saying in August that he didn't want people to use the national service for mail-in voting.

Mailboxes were also removed throughout the U.S., including the Westside.
