SJRES 57 United States Senate · 117th Congress

A joint resolution redesignating the Robert E. Lee Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery as the "Arlington House National Historic Site".

Bill SJRES 57 would rename the Robert E. Lee Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery to "Arlington House National Historic Site." It requires all federal documents, laws, and records to update references to the site to its new name and repeals two prior resolutions (1955 and 1972) that established the memorial. The National Park Service, which administers the site, would implement this change. This procedural bill only alters the official designation without modifying the site's management, purpose, or access.
