What it does
The bill tells the Smithsonian to make a long-term show about Trump's time as leader. It covers 2017 to 2021 and 2025 to 2029. It would collect objects, stories from people, and media records. The bill tells the National Park Service to take down some signs. It would put up new signs that explain Congress's power. The bill gives $5 million for this work.
Who it affects
The Smithsonian and the National Park Service would do this work. Taxpayers would pay the $5 million. People who visit federal museums and parks would see the new show and signs.
One thing to notice
The bill uses federal money and federal land to make a statement. Future Congresses could use federal museums and parks the same way against their foes.
