AI Summary
This bill proposes to rename the United States Postal Service facility located at 2407 State Route 71, Suite 1, in Spring Lake, New Jersey, as the "James J. Howard Post Office." The legislation would officially designate this postal location with the new name, and any future references to this facility in official government documents, maps, regulations, or records would automatically use the new name. This type of bill, which renames a federal building after a notable person, is a common way for Congress to honor individuals who have made significant contributions to their community or country. In this case, the bill appears to be recognizing James J. Howard, though no specific details about his background or achievements are provided in the legislative text. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, and the postal facility would be legally required to use the new name in all official capacities.
