This bill extends the authorization period for the African American Civil Rights Network, a National Park Service program that preserves and interprets sites significant to African American civil rights history. The legislation changes the program's authorization timeline from seven years to ten years, giving it a longer operational window. The bill was introduced in November 2024 and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources for consideration. The extension allows the network to continue its work documenting and sharing African American civil rights sites and stories for an additional three years beyond the current authorization period.
