S 218 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A bill to designate the area between the intersections of 16th Street, Northwest and Fuller Street, Northwest and 16th Street, Northwest and Euclid Street, Northwest in Washington, District of Columbia, as "Oswaldo Paya Way".

This bill (S 218) renames a specific street segment in Washington, D.C., between 16th Street NW and Fuller Street NW, and 16th Street NW and Euclid Street NW, as "Oswaldo Payá Way." It also redesignates the address 2630 16th Street NW as 2630 Oswaldo Payá Way. The bill requires the District of Columbia to install new street signs matching the design used for Metro station signs. This is a purely symbolic designation honoring Oswaldo Payá, a Cuban dissident who died in a 2012 car crash widely believed to involve the Cuban government.
