Plain-English Summary

The federal government would establish a new national historic site dedicated to Justice Thurgood Marshall, the first African American Supreme Court justice, preserving his legacy and making his story accessible to the public. The site would protect and interpret locations significant to Marshall's life and career, allowing visitors to learn about his groundbreaking role in civil rights history and his impact on American law. This would be managed by the National Park Service, similar to other historic sites that commemorate important American figures and events.
