HR 10190 United States House · 118th Congress

Juneteenth Museum Act of 2024

This bill directs the Smithsonian Institution to conduct a two-year study on establishing a Juneteenth museum on Galveston Island, Texas. The study will examine construction and operating costs, potential sites, whether the museum should be part of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and other relevant factors, with input from Galveston officials and community leaders. It does not fund or create the museum but requires a final report to Congress within 30 days of study completion. The bill directly affects the Smithsonian, Galveston County, and Texas state officials involved in the study process.
