AI Summary
This bill keeps the work going to plan and build a national memorial honoring the Adams family and other great American heroes. It allows the project to continue, sets funding rules, and clarifies where the memorial can be placed in Washington, DC. It authorizes up to $50 million, but every federal dollar must be matched by a dollar of non-federal money, and only up to 4% of federal funds can be used for overhead costs. It also updates rules so the memorial can be established under federal commemorative standards and within a mapped area identified for the project as of February 25, 2025.
Key points:
- What changes: Extends authority for the memorial project; sets a $50 million cap with a 1-to-1 private match; limits admin costs to 4%; clarifies compliance with commemorative works rules; and allows siting within a specific mapped area in DC.
- Who is affected: The commission planning the memorial, donors and supporters, and future visitors to the memorial in Washington, DC.
