This bill designates a portion of U.S. Highway 36, specifically from the eastern city limits of Phillipsburg to the western city limits of Phillipsburg in Phillips County, as the "Deputy Sheriff Brandon Gaede Memorial Highway." The bill honors Deputy Sheriff Brandon Gaede, who tragically lost his life in the line of duty on June 27, 2025, while responding to a report of illegal explosives. Gaede was recognized for his bravery and dedication to law enforcement, having served as a sheriff's deputy and later as undersheriff in Phillips County.

The bill mandates that the Secretary of Transportation place suitable signs along the highway right-of-way to indicate the memorial designation, in compliance with existing law (K.S.A. 68-10,114). The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book.
