What this bill does
S. 4623 would designate the U.S. Postal Service facility at 12109 New Kent Highway in New Kent, Virginia, as the "Patricia Paige Post Office." The bill also directs that any future reference to this facility in federal laws, maps, regulations, or other records be treated as a reference to the new name. This is a purely commemorative naming bill with no funding, regulatory, or policy provisions attached.
The designation directly affects only this single postal facility and its official records; it does not change USPS operations, services, or affect the public beyond formally renaming the building. Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) introduced the bill, joined by Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA).
The bill was introduced in the Senate on May 21, 2026, and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. On August 6, 2026, the committee ordered it reported favorably without amendment. Next, it would go to the full Senate for a vote; if passed, it would then need to pass the House and be signed by the President before becoming law.
