H.R. 3290 designates the Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle, Washington, as the National Museum of Pop Culture, giving it an official national designation. However, the bill makes clear that this designation is largely honorary—the museum will not become part of the National Park System and will not receive any federal funding or support as a result of the designation. The bill was introduced in May 2025 by a bipartisan group of Washington state representatives and referred to the Committee on Natural Resources. Essentially, the legislation provides symbolic recognition of the museum's cultural importance without committing any taxpayer resources to its operation or maintenance.
