Murphy by renaming the United States Post Office in Necedah as the Sergeant Kenneth E. Murphy Post Office Building. Sergeant Murphy was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for his gallantry in Vietnam, as well as a Purple Heart.\n\n\u201cSergeant Murphy\u2019s heroism and devotion to his fellow service members and our great nation deserve to be honored,\u201d said Congressman Tiffany. \u201cThis Necedah postal renaming will cement his legacy in our nation\u2019s history.\u201d\n\n\u201cI am honored to be considered for this prestigious nomination for the Necedah Post Office Renaming. I was born in the house I grew up and have never left Necedah,\u201d said Sergeant Kenneth E. Murphy.\n\nH.R. 6651 would rename the U.S. Post Office located at 603 West 3rd Street in Necedah, Wisconsin, as the \u201cSergeant Kenneth E. Murphy Post Office Building.\u201d Sergeant Murphy was born and raised in Necedah and served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. On November 9, 1966, while serving as a squad leader on a search and destroy mission near Tuy Hoa, Sergeant Murphy fearlessly ran through a hail of bullets to try and help several wounded soldiers. Despite being wounded twice, including once in the head, he organized his men, led them in a fierce assault on the enemy, and enabled his men to break out of the trap and overwhelm the insurgent force. Sergeant Murphy received a Purple Heart and the Distinguished Service Cross for his service and sacrifice. He resides in Necedah to this day.\n\nThe entire Wisconsin delegation are original cosponsors of H.R. 6651.\n\nRep. Tiffany\u2019s Necedah Post Office renaming bill text can be foundhere.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:14:16Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://tiffany.house.gov/media/press-releases/tiffany-introduces-legislation-rename-necedah-post-office-after-distinguished"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2813881039619446, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
