On December 18, 2025, the President signed Legislative Bill S. 2283 into law, officially designating the United States Postal Service facility at 201 West Oklahoma Avenue in Guthrie, Oklahoma, as the Oscar J. Upham Post Office. This designation honors an individual for their notable contributions to the community and aims to recognize local history and heritage through such honors.

Additionally, the President signed Bill S. 356, known as the ‘Secure Rural Schools Reauthorization Act of 2025.’ This legislation reauthorizes the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000 through the fiscal year 2026, providing support for rural schools and communities affected by declining revenue from timber harvests on federal lands. The reauthorization seeks to ensure financial stability for these communities, enabling them to maintain essential services and educational programs.

Overall, the signing of these bills reflects the administration’s commitment to recognizing local contributions and supporting rural communities. The new laws will help enhance local infrastructure and sustain vital resources for schools, addressing the needs of rural residents effectively.
