Key Points

Congress asks the Interior Department to allow special displays on the National Mall, including videos on the Washington Monument, for five nights from Dec 31, 2025 to Jan 5, 2026.
The displays would feature artifacts, films, and sound tied to America’s 250th birthday, like the Apollo 11 show that drew large crowds in 2019.
This is a request, not an order. The Interior Department must still approve and set rules for permits, security, and hours.
If approved, expect big crowds, possible road closures, busy Metro stations, and tight security around the Mall on those nights.
The resolution does not add new funding or taxes. Costs would likely be covered by federal agencies and partner groups running the event.
