This bill officially designates America's National Churchill Museum, located at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, as a National Historic Landmark , encompassing the existing Winston Churchill Memorial. It authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to enter into cooperative agreements with public or private entities to protect the Landmark's historic resources and provide educational and interpretive programs, offering technical and financial assistance for these efforts. The legislation clarifies that this designation does not restrict actions by property owners or alter the existing administration of the Landmark by the State, City, or College. Furthermore, the bill mandates the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a special resource study of the newly designated Landmark, evaluating its national significance and assessing the suitability and feasibility of its potential inclusion in the National Park System. This study must also consider alternative preservation strategies and identify cost estimates, with a comprehensive report detailing findings and recommendations due to Congress within three years of funding.
