To change the address of the postal facility designated in honor of Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr.
Latest action (22 Jul 2026): Ordered to be Reported by Voice Vote.
What this bill does
H.R. 8359 would make a technical correction to a previous law that named a postal facility in honor of Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. Specifically, it amends Public Law 115-134 to change the street number associated with that post office's address from "324" to "211." The bill also clarifies that any existing reference in federal laws, maps, regulations, or other documents to the facility should be understood to refer to the "Specialist Jeffrey L. White, Jr. Post Office," regardless of the address change.
This bill primarily affects administrative and postal records rather than the public at large. It ensures that the honorary designation of the post office correctly corresponds to its actual physical address, correcting what appears to be an error in the original designating legislation. The change would matter mainly to the U.S. Postal Service and any government records referencing the facility's location.
The bill was introduced by Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO) on April 16, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. As of July 22, 2026, it has been ordered to be reported by voice vote, meaning the committee has approved it for further consideration by the full House. The next step would be a vote in the House of Representatives, followed by potential consideration in the Senate before it could be signed into law.
