HR 2520 United States House · 119th Congress

César E. Chávez and the Farmworker Movement National Historical Park Act

HR 2520 redesignates the existing César E. Chávez National Monument in Keene, California, as the César E. Chávez and the Farmworker Movement National Historical Park. It expands the park to include specific sites: The Forty Acres in Delano, California; Santa Rita Center in Phoenix, Arizona; and McDonnell Hall in San Jose, California, with future additions possible through land acquisition or agreements. The bill directs the National Park Service to manage these sites under standard park system laws, create a management plan within three years, and consult with relevant groups like the National Chávez Center. This primarily affects the National Park Service, landowners in California and Arizona, and the public by preserving and interpreting locations central to the farmworker movement's history.
