I can't believe this bill is passing! Why are they naming a post office after William J. Donovan? I don't agree with this at all. It's not fair to the people of Buffalo. This is just another example of politicians wasting time and money on pointless things. I wish they would focus on more important issues instead of this nonsense. It's frustrating to see my tax dollars being used for something like this. I hope they reconsider and focus on things that actually matter.
