An article from December 2016, mentioning Bernie Sanders getting the endorsement of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) during his presidential campaign.

>But this is not a simple case of partisan gridlock. Although Senate Republicans have stymied the President's [Barack Obama] attempts to fill a variety of federal offices in recent years, it is something of an open secret that the senators blocking the postal governor nominees are actually not Republicans. Perhaps the most prominent of these is Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose support for the postal service earned him the endorsement of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) during his presidential campaign. Sen. Sanders has not spoken publicly on the vacancies, though, and his office has not yet returned TheStreet's request for comment.

I posted this link yesterday, but my skills here are still lacking. Maybe I get the hang of it in time, but for now I'm replying to myself, hoping that someone sees anything of significance in it.
