Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. LANGWORTHY. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 9421) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 108 North Main Street in Bucoda, Washington, as the ``Mayor Rob Gordon Post Office''.

The Clerk read the title of the bill.

The text of the bill is as follows: H.R. 9421

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. MAYOR ROB GORDON POST OFFICE.

(a) Designation.--The facility of the United States Postal Service located at 108 North Main Street in Bucoda, Washington, shall be known and designated as the ``Mayor Rob Gordon Post Office''.

(b) References.--Any reference in a law, map, regulation, document, paper, or other record of the United States to the facility referred to in subsection (a) shall be deemed to be a reference to the ``Mayor Rob Gordon Post Office''.

Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this bill which honors Mayor Rob Gordon by naming a post office in his memory.

Mayor Gordon was a lifelong resident of southwest Washington. He was elected mayor of Bucoda, a town of approximately 580 residents, in May 2021, and served until his passing.

Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.
