Hageman Supported Bill Advances Designating a ZIP Code for the Town of Mills, WY

Washington, D.C. – Legislation supported by Congresswoman Hageman to designate a unique ZIP Code to the Town of Mills, Wyoming passed out of the Committee of Oversight and Government Reform on Wednesday.  

“It is important that each of our municipalities have the tools they need to fulfill their duties to their constituents.” Hageman stated, “I’ve been working with Mayor Juarez on this issue to ensure that Mills residents are able to receive their mail, that no barriers exist for municipal operations, and that the census is accurate. The passage of the bill is a win for the people of Mills and for Wyoming as our municipalities continue to be beacons of excellence for those living within them, and I look forward to its consideration by the full House of Representatives.” 

In addition to its impact on mail service, lacking a unique ZIP Code puts public safety at risk with delayed emergency management service response times and further convoluted voter registration. H.R. 672 solves these challenges and allows for the accurate reflection of the boundaries of Mills addresses.
