This joint resolution changes the official name of the Robert E. Lee Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery to "Arlington House National Historic Site." The site, which has been administered by the National Park Service since 1955, will be redesignated under this new name, and all federal references to it in laws, regulations, documents, and records will automatically be updated accordingly. The resolution repeals two previous joint resolutions from 1955 and 1972 that originally established and modified the memorial's designation. The bill does not involve any new funding or timeline requirements beyond the effective date of enactment. This change affects how the historic property is officially named and referenced by the federal government going forward.
