This bill renames the Department of Veterans Affairs community-based outpatient clinic in Butte, Montana, as the "Charlie Dowd VA Clinic" to honor Navy veteran Charles "Charlie" Dowd. It directly affects the facility's official designation and all federal references to it. The renaming recognizes Dowd's service during the Pearl Harbor attack (where he defended the base with a rifle), his seven Bronze Star Medals, and his lifelong advocacy for veterans and community preservation in Montana. The change took effect upon the bill's enactment on July 30, 2024.
