I think naming the post office after William J. Donovan is a nice gesture, but I don't agree with it. I believe there are more deserving individuals who have made significant contributions to our country that could be honored in this way. This decision may not directly impact me, but it does make me question the criteria for naming public buildings. #HRBill1706 #PostOfficeNaming Short term affects of the United States HR Bill 1706 To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 1200 William Street, Room 200, in Buffalo, New York, as the "William J.
