Bill Summary · HR 8359

Overview

  • Bill: H.R.8359
  • Session: 119th Congress, 2nd Session
  • Title: To change the address of the postal facility designated in honor of Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr.
  • Introduced: April 16, 2026 by Rep. Ann Wagner (with multiple co-sponsors)
  • Status: Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform

Purpose and Intent

  • The bill seeks to change the designation address of the postal facility named in honor of Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. Specifically, it alters the numeric designation of the post office facility from 324 to 211 (as applied to the designation in Public Law 115-134).

Key Provisions

  • Section 1(a) Redesignation: Amends Section 1(a) of Public Law 115-134 by striking the number “324” and inserting “211” as the postal facility’s designation within that statute.
  • Section 1(b) References: States that references in any law, map, regulation, document, paper, or other record to the facility designated in section 1 of Public Law 115-134 (as amended by this bill) should be deemed to refer to the “Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. Post Office.”
  • Overall effect: The physical post office facility retains its commemorative designation, but the official designation/address used in official records is updated from 324 to 211, and all references must reflect the renamed facility.

Who Would Be Affected

  • The primary beneficiary is Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr., in that the post office facility is formally renamed in his honor.
  • Government agencies, postal service employees, contractors, and the general public would be affected by updated references and address designations in official documents, maps, and regulations to reflect the new designation.
  • Any ongoing or future references to the former designation (324) within laws, maps, regulations, documents, and records would need updating or interpretation to point to the new designation (211) and the formal name “Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. Post Office.”

Procedural and Timeline Considerations

  • Legislative action: The bill has been introduced and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
  • Next steps: The committee would review, potentially amend, and may report the bill to the full House for consideration. If enacted by both House and Senate, the President would sign the measure into law.
  • Effective date: The bill text does not specify an immediate effective date; typically, post office designation changes take effect upon enactment or as designated in the final statute and related implementing guidance.

Notes

  • The bill is relatively narrow in scope, focusing solely on updating the designation and all references to the post office facility honoring Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr.
  • Co-sponsors include Representatives Wesley Bell, Ann Wagner, Jason Smith, Sam Graves, Emanuel Cleaver, and Mark Alford.
