U.S. territories and commonwealths would get to display statues in the National Statuary Hall Collection.
This bill would let U.S. territories and commonwealths, such as Puerto Rico and Guam, send statues to the National Statuary Hall Collection in the U.S. Capitol. Right now, only states can do this. This change would allow these areas to honor their important historical figures alongside those from the states.
Currently, only U.S. states are allowed to provide statues for the National Statuary Hall Collection in the U.S. Capitol. If this bill becomes law, American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the United States Virgin Islands would also be able to contribute statues, giving them a voice in this historic display.
