Albert Pike Statue Removal Act
HR 1136, the Albert Pike Statue Removal Act, directs the National Park Service to remove a statue honoring Albert Pike from its location near Judiciary Square in Washington, D.C. The bill mandates removal of the statue erected in 1898 under a prior congressional resolution and authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to donate it to a museum or similar institution for indoor preservation. The recipient must display the statue only indoors; if displayed outdoors, ownership reverts to the federal government. This bill directly affects the physical location and future display of the statue, with no other policy changes.
