CHAIRWOMAN
On Monday, July 23, 2012, the House is scheduled to consider H.R. 3477, under a suspension of the rules requiring a two-thirds majority vote for passage. H.R. 3477 was introduced by Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) on November 18, 2011, and referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
This legislation would designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 133 Hare Road in Crosby, Texas, as the Army First Sergeant David McNerney Post Office Building.
David H. McNerney, a retired Army first sergeant who was awarded the Medal of Honor for leading soldiers out of a Viet Cong ambush in 1967, died of lung cancer on Oct. 10 at a veterans hospital in Houston. He was 79.
According to CBO, any costs related to new post office designations, which include the cost of changing the name on the building, signs, and maps, are not significant.
