Buffalo Soldiers Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2025
The Buffalo Soldiers Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2025 authorizes Congress to award a gold medal to the Buffalo Soldier regiments - the 9th and 10th Cavalry, and the 24th and 25th Infantry regiments - for their service from 1866 until the Army's desegregation in 1951. The medal, designed by the Secretary of the Treasury, will be displayed at the National Museum of African American History and Culture in the Smithsonian Institution. Duplicate bronze medals may be sold to the public at cost to cover production expenses. This bill is a commemorative measure that formally recognizes the historical contributions of these military units without creating new government programs or altering existing laws.
