On Wednesday, December 19, 2012, the House is scheduled to consider H.R. 6587, under a suspension of the rules requiring a two-thirds majority vote for passage. The bill was introduced by Rep. Elton Gallegly (R-CA) on November 13, 2012, and referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.

H.R. 4062 would designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 225 Simi Village Drive in Simi Valley, California, as the "Postal Inspector Terry Asbury Post Office Building".  

Postal Inspector Asbury passed on February 3, 1990, succumbing to injuries sustained on January 30, 1990, when his vehicle was struck head-on by a truck pulling a trailer in Los Angeles, California. Inspector Asbury was conducting an investigation at the time of the accident.

The driver of the vehicle that caused the accident was charged with driving on a suspended license.

Inspector Asbury had served with the Postal Inspection Service for 4 years. He was survived by his wife and three children.

According to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), costs related to post office designations, which include the cost of changing the name on the building, signs, and maps, are not significant.
