Key Points

This bill keeps a national program running that protects and promotes sites related to the African American Civil Rights Movement. It ensures these historic locations continue to receive federal support and recognition.
The program was originally set to end after seven years. This new plan would extend its life for 10 more years from the time this bill is signed into law.
The network includes various sites, stories, and programs across the country. It helps the National Park Service work with local communities to tell the story of the struggle for civil rights.
Lawmakers from both the Democratic and Republican parties are supporting this effort. This broad support makes it more likely that the program will continue without interruption.
