Rock Creek National Park Act of 2026

This legislative proposal aims to redesignate Rock Creek Park in the District of Columbia as Rock Creek National Park. This change is intended to recognize the park's nationally significant natural, cultural, and historical resources, as well as its vital recreational opportunities, which were established by an Act in 1890. The bill mandates conforming amendments to Title 40 of the United States Code, specifically updating sections 8104(b) and 8501(a)(3)(B) to reflect the new name. Furthermore, it stipulates that any existing reference to "Rock Creek Park" in any official document or record of the United States shall henceforth be considered a reference to "Rock Creek National Park."
