American Border Story Memorial Act

The "American Border Story Memorial Act" authorizes The American Border Story (TABS) to establish a commemorative work on federal land in the District of Columbia or its environs. This memorial aims to honor United States citizens and legal residents who lost their lives due to crimes committed by individuals unlawfully present in the United States. The establishment of this commemorative work must comply with the provisions of the Commemorative Works Act . A key provision stipulates that no federal funds may be used for any expenses related to its creation. Any remaining funds after the memorial's establishment and maintenance, or upon expiration of authority, will be deposited with the Secretary of the Interior or the National Park Foundation for memorial-related purposes, ensuring proper stewardship of excess donations.
