Joint resolution requesting the Secretary of the Interior to authorize unique and one- time arrangements for displays on the National Mall and the Washington Monument during the period beginning on December 31, 2025, and ending on January 5, 2026.

Key Points

• Congress asks the Secretary of the Interior to allow special displays on the National Mall from December 31, 2025 to January 5, 2026.
• The plan includes projecting videos, images, and sound onto the Washington Monument for five nights.
• Exhibits may feature historic artifacts, films, and audio to kick off America's 250th birthday celebration.
• Large crowds are likely, so expect traffic delays, road closures, and security checkpoints near the Mall during that week.
• This is a one-time request, not a permanent rule, and the Interior Department still needs to approve the details.
