Connects Virginia's Marshall House to National Park System, boosting history appreciation.

This bill would make the General George C. Marshall House in Virginia an official "affiliated area" of the National Park System. This means the site would get help with things like marketing and preservation, making it easier for people to learn about George C. Marshall's important history. The George C. Marshall International Center would continue to manage the house, working with the National Park Service.

What Would Change

Today, the General George C. Marshall House is not formally connected to the National Park System. If this bill passes, it would become an "affiliated area," meaning it would get federal recognition and support for its preservation and public education efforts. The George C. Marshall International Center would manage the site, working with the National Park Service.

Key Provisions
