The U.S. Mint would make collector coins for the 2028 LA and 2034 Salt Lake City Olympic and Paralympic Games. Extra fees on each coin would fund the games and youth sports programs. Taxpayers would not be on the hook — the Mint must recover all costs first.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
America’s Olympic and Paralympic Games Commemorative Coins Act is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the House Committee on Financial Services.
Latest action on H.R. 4382: Referred to the House Committee on Financial Services.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects coin collectors, the U.S. Mint, and the organizing committees for the 2028 and 2034 Olympic and Paralympic Games. It could also matter to youth sports organizations that might benefit from legacy funding, and to anyone who cares about how the U.S. marks major international sporting events.
Why this matters: Two major Olympic events are coming to the U.S., and this bill would create a way to raise money for them without using tax dollars. Collectors and fans would fund the games voluntarily by buying commemorative coins. The actual amount raised depends entirely on how many coins sell, so the financial support for the games is not guaranteed. Because only two commemorative coin programs can run per year nationwide, approving these could block other coin proposals in 2028 and 2034.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
