What this bill would do
This bill simply renames a specific building located in Casper, Wyoming. It changes the name of the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center to the Barbara L. Cubin National Historic Trails Interpretive Center. The text makes sure that any official documents, maps, or laws that mention the old name will now refer to the new name. It also updates the older public law that originally created the center to match this new title. That is all the legislation does.
