Wildland Firefighters Congressional Gold Medal Act

This bill, titled the "Wildland Firefighters Congressional Gold Medal Act," seeks to honor wildland firefighters by authorizing the award of a Congressional Gold Medal . This prestigious recognition is for their collective strength, resiliency, sacrifice, and dedicated service in protecting the forests, grasslands, and communities across the United States. The Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President pro tempore of the Senate are tasked with arranging the presentation of this single gold medal. The Secretary of the Treasury will be responsible for designing and striking the medal with suitable emblems and inscriptions, in consultation with the National Interagency Fire Center. After its presentation, the gold medal will be given to the National Interagency Fire Center , where it will be displayed and made available for research. Congress expresses its sense that the display should be at appropriate locations, particularly those associated with wildland firefighters. Furthermore, the bill authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to strike and sell duplicate bronze medals to the public. Proceeds from these sales will be deposited into the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund , which is also authorized to cover the costs associated with striking the original gold medal.
