This bill designates the General George C. Marshall House in Leesburg, Virginia as an affiliated area of the National Park System, honoring the historic contributions of military leader and statesman George Catlett Marshall, Jr. The site's boundaries are defined by an official map created in September 2023. Rather than being run by the federal government, the property will continue to be managed by the George C. Marshall International Center, which serves as the designated management entity. The Secretary of the Interior may offer technical assistance and enter into cooperative agreements to help with marketing, preservation, and interpretation of the site, and is required to formalize an agreement outlining management responsibilities. Importantly, the bill specifies that the federal government will not acquire the property or take on financial responsibility for its operation or maintenance, leaving those duties with the Marshall International Center.
