Cost Estimate
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on May 20, 2026
On May 20, 2026, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform ordered reported three bills that would name different post offices:
H. R. 3350, a bill to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 340 East 1st Street in Tustin, California, as the “Ursula Ellen Kennedy Post Office Building”;
H. R. 4662, a bill to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 6444 San Fernando Road in Glendale, California, as the “Paul Ignatius Post Office”; and
H.R. 8669, a bill to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 5951 Riverdale Avenue in Bronx, New York, as the “Eliot L. Engel Post Office.”
Cash flows for the Postal Service are recorded in the federal budget in the Postal Service Fund and are classified as off-budget direct spending. CBO estimates that the cost of naming each of those facilities would be less than $500,000.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is David Rafferty. The estimate was reviewed by H. Samuel Papenfuss, Deputy Director of Budget Analysis.
