Plain Language Summary
# HR 4380 Summary **What the Bill Does** This bill would rename a specific stretch of U.S. Highway 75 in Texas (between President George Bush Turnpike and U.S. Highway 380) to honor former U.S. Congressman Sam Johnson. The new name would be the "U.S.
Congressman and Prisoner of War Sam Johnson Memorial Highway." The road is currently called simply the "Sam Johnson Highway," so this change expands the official designation to more fully recognize Johnson's military service and congressional career. **Who It Affects and Current Status** The bill primarily affects the Texas community where this highway segment is located, serving as a public tribute to Johnson's legacy. The legislation is currently in committee and has not yet been voted on by Congress. It was introduced by Rep. Keith Self, a Republican from Texas, in the 119th Congress.
