Designate the National POW/MIA Memorial and Museum as a national memorial.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with National POW/MIA Memorial and Museum Act?
The effort to designate the National POW/MIA Memorial and Museum remains stalled in committee as of June 2026. The House Committee on Veterans Affairs and the House Committee on Natural Resources must act to move H.R. 3057 forward, but most bills fail to receive a committee vote. This lack of action is the standard way most legislative proposals end in Congress.
