Building designations
The House and Senate often agree to name or rename federal buildings, especially post offices, to honor notable Americans. Since 1991, the House has held 179 roll-call votes on building designations (the Senate almost always approves such measures by voice vote). You'll find a list of the roll-call votes, beginning with the most recent name changes, below.
