Authorizing the use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center for an event to unveil the statue of Barbara Rose Johns.

This concurrent resolution authorizes the use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center for a specific event: the unveiling of a statue honoring Barbara Rose Johns on December 16, 2025. It directs the Architect of the Capitol to permit the event and oversee physical preparations, but does not create new policy or affect any constituents beyond the event planning. The resolution is purely procedural, focusing solely on granting access to a Capitol space for this commemorative occasion.
