Native American United States Veterans memorial appropriation

This bill allocates $1.2 million from the general fund for fiscal year 2026 to design and build a memorial honoring Native American U.S. veterans on the Minnesota Capitol complex. It requires forming a 13-member advisory task force (including tribal veteran representatives) to select a Native American artist, materials, and design, with final approval from the Indian Affairs Council. The memorial must use Minnesota-made materials and be constructed within specified Capitol complex boundaries. The task force must complete its work by late 2025, with the artist selection process beginning by September 2025.
