To amend title 36, United States Code, to move the place of incorporation and domicile of the National Woman’s Relief Corps to Illinois, to move the principal office of such Corps to Murphysboro, Illinois, and for other purposes.
HR 988 is a procedural bill that changes the legal location of the National Woman's Relief Corps. It moves the Corps' incorporation and legal domicile from the District of Columbia to Illinois, and shifts its principal office from Springfield, Illinois, to Murphysboro, Illinois. The bill also updates service-of-process requirements to reference Illinois officials instead of District of Columbia authorities. This is purely an administrative relocation with no impact on the Corps' operations or members.
