Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the current design concept for the National Global War on Terrorism Memorial fails to adequately honor the profound sacrifice of members of the United States Armed Forces, and demanding a redesigned monument that clearly and unmistakably honors the valor, combat reality, and distinct sacrifice of post-9/11 veterans.
This bill, HR1407, proposes that the current design of the National Global War on Terrorism Memorial does not sufficiently honor the sacrifices made by members of the U.S. Armed Forces after the 9/11 attacks. The House of Representatives is expressing the need for a redesigned memorial that better reflects the courage, combat experiences, and unique sacrifices of post-9/11 veterans.
This bill would affect those who visit the memorial, especially veterans and their families, by advocating for a design that more accurately represents their experiences and sacrifices. It aims to ensure that the monument serves as a fitting tribute to the valor and dedication of these service members.
As of the last status update, HR1407 was introduced on June 30, 2026, and has been referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources. The bill has just been submitted and is in its initial stages of consideration.
