United Negro College Fund, Inc. Congressional Gold Medal Act
This bill authorizes Congress to award a Congressional Gold Medal to the United Negro College Fund (UNCF) and its member Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in recognition of the UNCF's 80th anniversary. It directs the Treasury Secretary to design and strike the medal, with proceeds from bronze duplicates covering costs. The bill is purely ceremonial - no new policies or funding are created - and honors the UNCF's role in raising over $7 billion for HBCUs and awarding $100 million in annual scholarships.
