Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview in 1-2 paragraphs
This concurrent resolution authorizes Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center to be used on September 3, 2025, for a ceremony to present Congressional Gold Medals that were awarded under the Harlem Hellfighters Congressional Gold Medal Act (Public Law 117-38). The preparation of the ceremony must follow conditions set by the Architect of the Capitol. In short, it provides official permission for a specific ceremonial event in a specific space within the Capitol; it does not create new law or authorize funding—the act is mainly a logistical/ceremonial authorization tied to an existing act recognizing the Harlem Hellfighters.
