Representatives Greg Stanton, Paul Gosar, Yassamin Ansari and Juan Ciscomani, introduced legislation that would rename the downtown Tucson Federal Building as the “Raúl M. Grijalva Federal Building”, after the late congressman.
“Renaming this building is a small but meaningful gesture to recognize Congressman Grijalva for his years of dedicated service to the people of Southern Arizona,” Stanton said in a statement.
Built in 1974, the building located at 300 West Congress Street houses various federal agencies like the U.S. Forest Service, Department of Labor, Citizenship, Immigration Services and others.
In March it was reported that the General Services Administration, the agency that deals with federal real estate, listed the building as a non-core asset for sale, under directive by DOGE.
The building was later dropped from the list.
