Mr. COMER. Mr. Speaker, I move to suspend the rules and pass the bill (H.R. 672) to establish new ZIP Codes for certain communities, and for other purposes, as amended.

The Clerk read the title of the bill.

The text of the bill is as follows: H.R. 672

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. ESTABLISHING NEW ZIP CODES.

Not later than 270 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the United States Postal Service shall designate a single, unique ZIP Code for each of the following communities:

(1) Eastvale, California.

(2) Scotland, Connecticut.

(3) Cooper City, Florida.

(4) Miami Lakes, Florida.

(5) Ocoee, Florida.

(6) Village of Estero, Florida.

(7) Urbandale, Iowa.

(8) Mills, Wyoming.

Mr. Speaker, H.R. 672 designates single and unique ZIP Codes for communities across the Nation. There are currently over 41,000 ZIP Codes in the United States. In some cases, ZIP Codes are misaligned with local boundaries. H.R. 672 addresses the concerns of various localities and establishes new ZIP Codes for communities across the Nation.

Mr. Speaker, I thank the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Diaz-Balart), the bill's sponsor, for putting this bill together.
