HJRES 133 United States House · 119th Congress

Requesting the Secretary of the Interior to authorize unique and one-time arrangements for displays on the National Mall and the Washington Monument during the period beginning on December 31, 2025, and ending on January 5, 2026.

HJRES 133 is a joint resolution requesting the Secretary of the Interior to authorize temporary displays on the National Mall and Washington Monument during December 31, 2025, to January 5, 2026. It specifically asks for five nights of public displays featuring semiquincentennial materials, artifacts, and projected content onto the Washington Monument. The resolution aims to commemorate the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence, building on past celebrations like the 1976 bicentennial and 2019 Apollo 11 commemoration. This request affects the Secretary of the Interior (who would grant authorization) and the public (who would attend the displays).
