To authorize the President to award the Medal of Honor to Doris Miller posthumously for acts of valor while a member of the Navy during World War II.

This bill authorizes the President to posthumously award Doris Miller, an African-American Navy cook who served during World War II, the Medal of Honor - the highest military honor - for his actions during the December 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor attack. It directly affects Miller (who died in 1943) by correcting a historical oversight: he was initially recognized with a Navy Cross but never received the Medal of Honor, despite being among those who could have earned it. The key provision waives standard time limits for posthumous Medal of Honor awards under U.S. Code, enabling the President to formally recognize Miller's valor - specifically his actions manning a machine gun under fire and saving lives - after his death. The bill cites that no African-American sailor received the Medal of Honor for Pearl Harbor actions, while Miller's heroism was documented in Navy reports.
