Warner and Tim Kaine (both D-VA) to rename United States Postal Service (USPS) offices in Loudoun County, Fairfax, and New Kent.\n\n\u201cGiving Fairlawn its own ZIP code will ensure the town and Pulaski County do not unfairly lose out on tax revenue to fund public services, as well as alleviate confusion and stress for its residents. Gerry Connolly, Trevor Brown, and Patricia Paige were three exceptional Virginians who devoted their lives to serving the Commonwealth,\u201d said the senators. \u201cWe are thrilled to see these bills pass out of committee and urge our colleagues to support this legislation to give Fairlawn its own ZIP code and honor these dedicated public servants.\u201d\n\nThe Loudoun County post office, in Sterling, would be designated as the \u201cFirefighter Trevor Brown Post Office Building,\u201d honoring the service of firefighter Trevor Brown \u2013 a husband, father of three, and youth soccer and baseball coach who lost his life in the line of duty on February 16, 2024. The USPS facility is located at 46164 Westlake Drive in Sterling, VA.\n\nThe Fairfax post office would be designated as the \u201cCongressman Gerald E. \u2018Gerry\u2019 Connolly Post Office Building.\u201d The renaming honors the late Congressman Gerald E. \u201cGerry\u201d Connolly, whose decades of service and leadership transformed Northern Virginia and inspired a generation of public servants. The USPS facility is located at 10660 Page Avenue in Fairfax, VA.\n\nThe New Kent post office would be renamed the \u201cPatricia Paige Post Office\u201d after an Army Reservist who became the first black woman to serve on the New Kent Board of Supervisors. Page was a persistent advocate for the replacement of the former New Kent Post Office due to its aging structure and inability to accommodate residents and postal workers. The USPS facility is located at 12109 New Kent Highway in New Kent, VA.\n\nLast year, Warner and Kaine and Rep. Morgan Griffith (VA-09) introduced bills in the Senate and the House of Representatives to designate a unique ZIP code for Fairlawn, Virginia.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-07T06:11:19Z", "2026-08-07T06:12:42Z"]], "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://www.kaine.senate.gov/press-releases/key-senate-committee-passes-bills-to-establish-fairlawn-zip-codeand-rename-three-virginia-post-offices"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7816269062459469, "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"}
