Creates a grant program to help preserve historic military ships and teach maritime skills.
This bill would create a new federal grant program to help save old military ships and submarines. It would set aside $5 million each year to help museums and other groups fix up these vessels and offer training for maritime jobs. This means more people could learn about our naval history and get skills for future careers.
Today, the Department of the Interior has no specific federal grant program. It lacks one dedicated to preserving historic military vessels or for related education and job training. If this bill passes, the Department of the Interior would create a new grant program. It would set aside $5,000,000 each year, starting in the government's budget year 2026, to fund these efforts.
