HR 7495 United States House · 119th Congress

To authorize the establishment of memorials to the Wisconsin infantry officers and enlisted men who fought in the Battle of Antietam and the Second Battle of Bull Run, and for other purposes.

This bill authorizes the establishment of two memorials honoring Wisconsin infantry regiments at Civil War battle sites. It directs the Secretary of the Interior to approve locations within Antietam National Battlefield for regiments that fought at Antietam (1862) and within Manassas National Battlefield Park for regiments that fought at the Second Battle of Bull Run (1862). The memorials must be funded and built by private entities - no federal funds may be used for design, acquisition, site preparation, or installation - and the National Park Service will assume maintenance responsibility after installation.
