Latest action on S. 2734: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects the nonprofit that runs the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. It could receive federal money, but it would also take on free-entry rules, public audits, and yearly reports. It also affects active and retired service members, registered 9/11 first responders, families of 9/11 victims, low-income visitors, and the general public.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it could help pay for a major national memorial while also changing how people can visit it. The grant could help with safety, upkeep, and daily operations. In exchange, the museum would have to provide free access for several groups and weekly free hours for everyone. The bill also gives the public and Congress more visibility into the museum’s finances. The impact depends on whether Congress provides the money.
