HR 763 United States House · 119th Congress

James J. Andrews and William H. Campbell Congressional Gold Medal Act

This bill authorizes a single Congressional Gold Medal to honor James J. Andrews and William H. Campbell, the only civilian members of Andrews' Raiders during the Civil War. It commemorates their 1862 raid to sabotage Confederate rail lines, which led to their execution after capture. The medal, designed by the Treasury Secretary, will be displayed at the Smithsonian Institution - specifically at the Medal of Honor Museum - and bronze duplicates may be sold to the public. The bill does not create new policies or affect current legislation, as it is purely a commemorative measure recognizing historical service.
