Congressman Langworthy Leads ZIP Code Fix for Pendleton and Wheatfield

July 22, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON, D.C . – Congressman Nick Langworthy announced that the U.S. House of Representatives has passed the bipartisan ZIP Code Act, H.R. 3095 , legislation he proudly cosponsored and helped advance through the House Oversight Committee in partnership with Congresswoman Lauren Boebert. The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration. The legislation directs the U.S. Postal Service to assign unique ZIP codes to more than 65 underserved communities across the country—including the Towns of Pendleton and Wheatfield in Western New York. For decades, Pendleton and Wheatfield have shared ZIP codes with neighboring municipalities—leading to misdirected mail, delayed deliveries, inaccurate sales tax distribution, inflated insurance rates, and slower emergency response times. “This has been a long-standing problem that’s impacted nearly every household and business in Pendleton and Wheatfield,” said Congressman Langworthy. “I made it a top priority to fix it. Now that the House has passed this bill, we’re one step closer to giving these communities the recognition, reliability, and services they deserve.” Langworthy is calling on the Senate to act swiftly and deliver long-overdue relief to these growing Western New York towns. ### Issues : Congress New York State
