Summary#
This bill updates the street number used in the federal law that names a post office in honor of Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. The change replaces the number "324" with "211" in the earlier law that designated the facility. The stated effect is to make any federal reference to that facility point to the corrected address and name.
- Main change: the numeric address in the naming law for the Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. post office is changed from 324 to 211.
- References fixed: other federal laws, maps, documents, and records that refer to the facility will be treated as referring to the facility under the corrected address and name.
- Scope: this is a technical amendment to an existing public law that named a postal facility.
What it means for you#
- Local residents / mail users: This bill is unlikely to change how mail is delivered. It updates the legal reference used in the statute that names the post office.
- United States Postal Service (USPS): USPS may need to update internal records, maps, or signage if those records rely on the statutory address. Operational addressing and ZIP codes would not automatically change because of this law.
- Federal agencies and records managers: Laws, maps, rules, and documents that mention the original statutory address will be treated as referring to the updated address. This reduces mismatch between the statute and other records.
- General public: No change to who the building honors; the facility keeps the same honorary name in federal law.
Expenses#
No publicly available information.
- The bill itself does not include a fiscal estimate in the provided material.
- Possible minor administrative costs could come from updating federal records, maps, and signage, but no cost estimate is supplied.
Proponents' View#
- The bill appears intended to correct or update the address cited in the law that named the post office.
- This could improve accuracy in federal records, maps, and legal documents.
- Fixing the statutory address can prevent confusion in future references to the facility.
Opponents' View#
- One concern is that the bill gives no explanation for the change; the reason for replacing the number is not stated.
- It is unclear whether all relevant federal and local records will be updated promptly, which could cause short-term confusion.
- There is no cost estimate, so the total administrative impact on agencies and local offices is not documented.
