World War II Women's Memorial Location Act

This bill lets a planned memorial for the women who worked on the home front during World War II be built on the National Mall. It allows the memorial to go in “Area I” or “the Reserve,” which are special, designated parts of the Mall that usually have stricter rules. The memorial honors the commitment and service of women who supported the U.S. military from factories, offices, and communities during the war.

Key points

• What changes: Makes an exception to location rules so this memorial can be placed in Area I or the Reserve on the National Mall.
• Who is affected: Visitors to the National Mall and the group creating the World War II women’s home-front memorial.
• Purpose: To recognize and honor women’s sacrifice and service on the home front during World War II.
