Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
This bill designates the United States Postal Service facility at 521 Thorn Street in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, as the "Mary Elizabeth Bettie Cole Post Office Building." It updates references so any official mention of that facility will use the new name. The House passed the measure on December 9, 2025, and the Senate received it December 10, 2025.
All agree it's low-cost; liberals emphasize symbolic community value.
Very low substantive barriers; such naming bills routinely pass the House quickly.
