American Border Story Memorial Act

This bill would allow a group called The American Border Story (TABS) to build a memorial on federal land in Washington, D.C., or nearby areas. The memorial would honor U.S. citizens and legal residents who died as victims of crimes committed by people present in the United States unlawfully. The memorial would have to follow the rules of the Commemorative Works Act. No federal money could be used to pay for building it. Any leftover money raised for the memorial would go to the Secretary of the Interior or to a National Park Foundation memorials account.
