National Liberty Memorial Preservation Act

This Act may be cited as the National Liberty Memorial Preservation Act.

Congress finds that the period preceding the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States on July 4, 1776, offers the best conditions in 10 generations to honor and preserve the contributions of enslaved and free black soldiers and civilians to independence by the triumph of a permanent National Liberty Memorial representing deeds that, on 2 previous occasions, Congress declared to be of preeminent historical and lasting significance to the nation.

Notwithstanding section 8903(e) of title 40, United States Code, the authority provided by section 2860 of the Military Construction Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (40 U.S.C. 8903 note; Public Law 112–239) shall continue to apply through September 30, 2027.
