Moab Post Office Gets New Name Honoring 2nd Lieutenant Mitch Williams

This bill is short, simple, and straightforward: it officially renames the United States Postal Service facility located at 50 East 100 North in Moab, Utah, as the "2nd Lieutenant Mitch Williams Post Office." This isn’t a policy overhaul or a regulatory change; it’s a legislative act of memorialization (Sec. 1).

The Administrative Change

For the average person, this bill changes almost nothing, except maybe the address they type into Google Maps if they live in Moab. The bill mandates that all existing and future federal references to this specific facility must use the new designation. That means the USPS, the General Services Administration, and any other federal agency that references this building must update their records, maps, and official documents. This is purely an administrative housekeeping item that ensures a permanent, public honorific for 2nd Lieutenant Mitch Williams.

Impact on the Ground

Since the bill is only concerned with naming, there is no direct impact on postal rates, delivery times, or services offered. If you run a small business in Moab, your mail service remains exactly the same. If you’re a resident, the location of your post office hasn't moved, only its official name has changed in the federal register. The only real-world difference is that this specific federal building will now serve as a permanent recognition of an individual, cementing their name into the local landscape for years to come.
