Mr. BURLISON. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 6244) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 1535 East Los Ebanos Boulevard in Brownsville, Texas, as the ``1st Lieutenant Andres Zermeno Post Office Building''.

The Clerk read the title of the bill.

The text of the bill is as follows: H.R. 6244

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. 1ST LIEUTENANT ANDRES ZERMENO POST OFFICE BUILDING.

(a) Designation.--The facility of the United States Postal Service located at 1535 East Los Ebanos Boulevard in Brownsville, Texas, shall be known and designated as the ``1st Lieutenant Andres Zermeno Post Office Building''.

(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 ``1st Lieutenant Andres Zermeno Post Office Building''.

Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this bill, which would rename a post office in Texas after 1st Lieutenant Andres Zermeno. I reserve the balance of my time.

Mr. BURLISON. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support this bill to designate a post office for 1st Lieutenant Zermeno, an American war hero who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to his country.

I yield back the balance of my time.
