A bill for an act relating to the staff sergeant William Nathaniel Howard highway, and including applicability provisions.

HF 2656 designates a segment of U.S. Highway 30 within Marshalltown's city limits as the "Staff Sergeant William Nathaniel Howard Highway" to honor Staff Sergeant William "Nate" Howard, who died in action in Palmyra, Syria, while serving in the Iowa Army National Guard. The bill applies permanently to this specific highway segment, regardless of any future changes to the highway's official designation by the U.S. government. This is a commemorative measure with no policy changes or funding impacts beyond standard signage costs paid from the primary road fund.
