Asks Joint Committee on Library of Congress to approve replacing NJ statue of Philip Kearny in National Statuary Hall Collection with statue of Alice Paul.
This bill requests New Jersey's state government to ask the Joint Committee on the Library of Congress to approve replacing the state's existing statue of Civil War general Philip Kearny in the U.S. Capitol's National Statuary Hall with a statue of Alice Paul. Alice Paul, a Moorestown, New Jersey native and key suffrage leader who helped secure the 19th Amendment, is highlighted as the proposed replacement. The bill creates a temporary selection committee to choose a sculptor, approve the statue design, and secure funding for the new statue and its installation, while also outlining how the replaced Kearny statue would be displayed within New Jersey. It is a procedural request, not a direct mandate, requiring approval from the federal committee before any physical replacement occurs.
