Key Points

  • Congress would allow a new memorial honoring women on the World War II home front to be placed on the National Mall.
  • It makes an exception to the usual limits on where new memorials can go, opening up prime space near other major monuments.
  • The memorial would honor women who supported the war effort in many roles, like building equipment and working as code breakers and mechanics.
  • If passed, this mainly affects where the memorial can be built—not benefits, taxes, or services most people use day to day.
