Plain-English Summary

This proposal would change the official name of the Robert E. Lee Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery to "Arlington House National Historic Site," reflecting a shift in how the federal government designates this historic property. The change would affect how the site is officially referred to in government documents and public materials, though it would not physically alter the building or its location on the cemetery grounds. The measure is currently under review by the Senate committee responsible for federal lands and historic preservation.
