Potential effects on citizens and communities
If this bill becomes law, the only immediate impact would be the renaming of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection marine unit in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico. This would primarily affect the members of that specific unit, who would now work under the Michel O. Maceda Marine Unit name. The broader public in Puerto Rico and the surrounding region may also become more aware of the unit and its new name through publicity around the change.
