• ✓ Passes · Enumerated powers
  Congress has explicit constitutional authority to establish post offices under Article I, Section 8, Clause 7. Designating the name of a postal facility is a routine exercise of that power and does not exceed it.

• ✓ Passes · Due process and takings
  The bill does not deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, nor does it take private property for public use. It imposes no penalties, fines, or obligations. No due process or takings issue arises.
