The "Peace Corps Volunteers Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2025" proposes to award a Congressional Gold Medal to Peace Corps volunteers. This prestigious recognition aims to honor their 65 years of dedicated service to the Nation and their continuous efforts in promoting world peace and friendship. The bill seeks to acknowledge the significant contributions of nearly 250,000 volunteers who have served since the Peace Corps' inception in 1961. The legislation highlights the Peace Corps as one of the most beneficial international assistance programs, with volunteers promoting peace and friendship in over 140 countries. Their expertise spans various sectors, including agriculture, education, health, and environmental development, contributing significantly to host countries' needs. The bill emphasizes the inspiration drawn from President John F. Kennedy's call to service and the Peace Corps' three core goals: helping countries meet their need for trained people, promoting a better understanding of Americans, and fostering a better understanding of other peoples among Americans. The Congressional Gold Medal is intended to honor volunteers who served between August 28, 1961, and December 31, 2026. The bill also recognizes the ultimate sacrifices made by over 300 volunteers and the continued service of those recalled during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate are authorized to present the medal to the Director of the Peace Corps, with the Secretary of the Treasury responsible for its design and striking. The medal will be housed at the Peace Corps headquarters and made available for display, with duplicate bronze medals authorized for sale to cover costs.
