Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. GILL of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 6310) to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 3570 Olney Laytonsville Road in Olney, Maryland, as the ``Edward L. Ramsey Olney Post Office Building''.

The Clerk read the title of the bill.

The text of the bill is as follows: H.R. 6310

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. EDWARD L. RAMSEY OLNEY POST OFFICE BUILDING.

(a) Designation.--The facility of the United States Postal Service located at 3570 Olney Laytonsville Road in Olney, Maryland, as the ``Edward L. Ramsey Olney 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 ``Edward L. Ramsey Olney Post Office Building''.

Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this bill which would rename a post office in Olney, Maryland, after Edward L. Ramsey.

Mr. Ramsey was a dedicated public servant, retired Army sergeant, and valued member of the Olney community. Even into retirement, Mr. Ramsey continued to serve his community by working at his local post office in Olney.

This bill would rename that post office where Mr. Ramsey tirelessly supported his neighbors.

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