Redesignating the Robert E. Lee Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery as the "Arlington House National Historic Site".
HJRES 76 proposes renaming the Robert E. Lee Memorial in Arlington National Cemetery to the "Arlington House National Historic Site." This procedural bill would replace all official references to the memorial with the new name and repeal two prior resolutions (1955 and 1972) that established the memorial. The change affects how the site is identified in federal laws, documents, and records but does not alter its management or historical significance. The bill focuses solely on the official designation, not on policy changes or historical interpretation.
