Postal Facilities Dedicated by Congress in Honor of Individuals Postal Facilities Dedicated by Congress in Honor of Individuals (as of September 1, 2021) In 1967, Congress passed the first law dedicating a postal facility in honor of an individual. Names of the honorees are listed below along with a brief description of why they were honored; the state, city, street address, and ZIP Code of the building dedicated to each honoree; the congressional district; the date the law was enacted; and the name of the bill, with its public law number.

  • Separate Interests to National Agendas Hispanic-American Members of Congress in the Civil Rights Era, 1945–1977
    Separate Interests to National Agendas hispanic-american members of congress in the civil rights era, 1945–1977 In June 1952 two long-running but often dissimilar paths of Hispanic-American congressional history converged, if only for a moment. At issue was the transformation of Puerto Rico from a colonial territory to a U.S. commonwealth. Under Puerto Rico’s proposed constitution, the island’s new government, the Estado Libre Asociado (Free Associated State or ELA), would be linked to the U.S. mainland by matters involving foreign affairs, but its authority to govern locally would be enhanced. Congress initially approved the concept, but quickly split over a constitutional human rights provision that had wide support among the Puerto Rican people. In the U.S. Senate, one faction sought to establish Congress’s ability to approve or reject amendments to the island’s constitution, essentially stripping Puerto Ricans of sovereignty.1 One such advocate bluntly argued that Congress essentially had the option to “give them a constitution or not give it to them.” Dennis Chavez of New Mexico, on the other hand—often that chamber’s lone proponent for boosting Hispanic civil rights—pushed back: “The Puerto Ricans did not ask us to take [their political rights]; we took them,” he said. In areas of the world where the U.S. was then working to contain the spread of communism, including in the Caribbean Basin, Chavez noted that America’s efforts would be aided by treating Puerto Ricans with more equanimity.2 Chavez’s intervention in the debate foreshadowed an important trend in this era—the increasing cooperation among advocates for Hispanic issues on a national scale.

    Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook Prepared by The President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History “Just think of the ideas, the inventions, the social movements that have so dramatically altered our society. Now, many of those movements and ideas we can trace to our own founding, our founding documents: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And we can then follow those ideas as they move toward Seneca Falls, where 150 years ago, women struggled to articulate what their rights should be. From women’s struggle to gain the right to vote to gaining the access that we needed in the halls of academia, to pursuing the jobs and business opportunities we were qualified for, to competing on the field of sports, we have seen many breathtaking changes. Whether we know the names of the women who have done these acts because they stand in history, or we see them in the television or the newspaper coverage, we know that for everyone whose name we know there are countless women who are engaged every day in the ordinary, but remarkable, acts of citizenship.” —- Hillary Rodham Clinton, March 15, 1999 Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook prepared by the President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History Commission Co-Chairs: Ann Lewis and Beth Newburger Commission Members: Dr. Johnnetta B.

  • ASSEMBLY Annual Report
    NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY SHELDON SILVER, SPEAKER committee on Veterans’ Affairs William B. Magnarelli, Chair Annual Report December 15, 2010 Honorable Sheldon Silver Speaker New York State Assembly Room 932 Legislative Office Building Albany, New York 12248 Dear Mr. Speaker, It is with great pleasure that I forward to you the 2010 Annual Report of the New York State Assembly Standing Committee on Veterans’ Affairs. In early March, I was honored, Mr. Speaker, to be named by you as chair of this important committee. I hope to continue the Assembly tradition of leadership that has been established since the committee was created in 1983. Several significant measures became law this year, including legislation that provides funeral directors, undertakers, and funeral firms in possession of cremated remains for more than one hundred and twenty days a method of determining if such remains are those of a veteran and how they may be disposed of, with the help of certain veterans’ service organizations. This legislation will significantly facilitate the interment of veterans’ unclaimed remains by removing the barriers that now exist, while effectively providing the legal protection necessary to funeral directors and veterans’ organizations alike as part of this noble endeavor. Some of the other measures enacted into law included: extension of the statute of limitations for cases based on torturous exposure of military personnel in Indo-china to phenoxy herbicide (Agent Orange); requiring the division of veterans’ affairs to maintain a small business portal on the division’s website; and the extension at local option of the redemption period for residential property for certain persons deployed by the military to four or five years.
