Lets organizers use Emancipation Hall for a Holocaust remembrance ceremony in 2026

This resolution would let organizers hold a ceremony remembering victims of the Holocaust in Emancipation Hall on April 14, 2026. It would give official permission for the event to take place in this Capitol building space. The Architect of the Capitol would set rules for how the space is prepared.

What Would Change

Currently, Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center is not specifically authorized for a Holocaust remembrance ceremony on April 14, 2026. If this resolution is adopted, the hall would be officially approved for this ceremony on that date, with the Architect of the Capitol overseeing event preparations.

Key Provisions

Lets Emancipation Hall be used for a Holocaust remembrance ceremony on April 14, 2026.
