To rename the Dallas Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, as the "Eddie Bernice Johnson VA Medical Center".
HR 1344 renames the Dallas Veterans Affairs Medical Center at 4500 South Lancaster Road, Dallas, Texas, to the "Eddie Bernice Johnson VA Medical Center." This bill updates all federal references to the facility to reflect the new name, including in laws, documents, and maps. It honors Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson's 30-year congressional service and her 16-year tenure as Chief Psychiatric Nurse at the Dallas VA Medical Center. The bill does not change services or funding; it is a ceremonial renaming.
