To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 3135 1st Avenue North in St. Petersburg, Florida, as the "Poul Hornsleth Post Office".
Summary
HB7313 is a narrow naming bill that would designate the United States Postal Service facility at 3135 1st Avenue North in St. Petersburg, Florida, as the "Poul Hornsleth Post Office." The bill also provides that any future reference in law, regulation, map, document, or other record to that postal facility should be understood to mean the newly named post office.
The measure does not create a new program, change postal operations, or alter eligibility for any federal benefit. Its sole legal effect is to rename a specific federal building and ensure consistency in official references after the designation takes effect.
Impact
The bill would amend the legal designation of one USPS facility in St. Petersburg, Florida, by adding the honorary name "Poul Hornsleth Post Office." It would affect federal records and references to that location, but it would not otherwise modify postal service law, appropriations, or agency authority. The practical impact is limited to signage, maps, documents, and ceremonial recognition of the honoree.
Sentiment
Based on the available context, the bill appears noncontroversial and routine. There were no recorded committee transcripts or votes indicating opposition or debate, and the measure was simply referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. Bills of this type are typically viewed as commemorative and are often supported on a bipartisan or unanimous basis when they advance.
Contention
No specific points of contention are reflected in the available record. Because the bill is a post office naming measure, any disagreement would likely be limited to the choice of honoree or the use of congressional time for commemorative legislation, but no such objections appear in the provided materials. The absence of committee discussion and voting history suggests little to no documented controversy.
