This bill honors the “Miracle on Ice” team from the 1980 Winter Olympics by awarding three Congressional Gold Medals to the team. The medals will be placed on public display so people can see and learn about the team’s achievement. The law also allows the U.S. Mint to make and sell bronze copies to cover costs.

Key points:

• Who is honored: The members of the 1980 U.S. Olympic men’s ice hockey team.
• What changes: Three gold medals are created and awarded on behalf of Congress. Afterward, one medal will go to the Lake Placid Olympic Center (NY), one to the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Museum (MN), and one to the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum (CO), where they will be displayed for the public.
• Extras: The Mint may sell bronze duplicates to pay for costs, and any proceeds go back to the Mint’s fund.
