To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 101 North Colorado Street in Chandler, Arizona, as the "Mayor Coy Payne Memorial Post Office Building".
Summary
HB7714 is a commemorative naming bill that would designate the United States Postal Service facility at 101 North Colorado Street in Chandler, Arizona, as the “Mayor Coy Payne Memorial Post Office Building.” The bill also provides that any future reference in federal law, maps, regulations, documents, or other records to that facility should be understood to mean the newly named memorial post office building.
The measure does not alter postal operations, funding, eligibility, or service levels. Its effect is limited to the official federal naming of a single USPS property and the conforming reference language that ensures the new name is used consistently in government records.
Impact
The bill would amend federal law only to assign an honorary name to a specific USPS facility in Chandler, Arizona, and to require that references to the facility in federal materials be treated as references to the memorial name. It does not create new statutory programs, impose regulatory requirements, or affect state law; its practical impact is symbolic and administrative, centered on signage, records, and official recognition of Mayor Coy Payne.
Sentiment
No committee transcript or vote record is available, so there is no documented debate or recorded opposition in the provided materials. Bills of this type are typically noncontroversial and are often advanced as ceremonial recognitions of local public figures, and this measure appears to fit that pattern based on its narrow scope and commemorative purpose.
Contention
No specific points of contention are identified in the available record. The only potential issue inherent in the bill is the usual question in naming legislation of whether Congress should devote floor and committee time to honorary designations, but there is no evidence here of disagreement over the honoree, the location, or the substance of the designation.
