Key Points

  • This bill would officially change the name of the post office located at 200 1st Avenue Southeast in Austin, Minnesota. It would be renamed the John Madden Memorial Post Office to honor the famous football coach and broadcaster who was born in the city.
  • The change would apply to all official federal records, maps, and government documents. This means the building would be recognized by its new name in all future government business and on official signs.
  • This action is a symbolic tribute and does not change how the post office operates or how mail is delivered to local residents. It is a common way for Congress to honor notable Americans in their hometowns.
