This legislative proposal, titled the People's White House Historic Preservation Act , seeks to amend title 54 of the United States Code. Its central purpose is to extend specific requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act to the White House and its surrounding grounds, which were previously exempt. The bill accomplishes this by modifying Section 307104 of title 54, striking the language that explicitly excluded the White House from certain preservation mandates. This amendment would subject the White House to historic preservation standards, ensuring its treatment aligns with other significant federal properties under the Act.
