Monument to America.
AN ACT relating to the administration of government; creating the monument to America development and oversight task force; providing duties of the task force; requiring a report; providing appropriations; and providing for an effective date.
HB0106 proposes to establish a "Monument to America Development and Oversight Task Force" to oversee the creation of a monument. This bill aims to provide administrative duties for the task force, require a report on the progress, and allocate funds for the project. The bill would primarily affect government officials and contractors involved in the monument's development and oversight.
The bill was introduced on February 3, 2025, and initially referred to the House Committee on Travel. On February 6, 2025, the committee recommended amendments and passed the bill with a vote of 8 to 1. However, on February 7, 2025, it failed in the Appropriations Committee with a vote of 2 in favor, 5 against, and 0 abstaining. The bill was returned to committee on March 3, 2025, and subsequently died.
Recent actions include the bill being recommended for amendment and passing in the Travel Committee, failing in the Appropriations Committee, and ultimately being returned to committee on March 3, 2025, where it was not advanced further.
