Protecting American History Act

This bill would require the Secretary of the Interior, acting through the National Park Service, to restore exhibits at Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia that were removed from public display after January 21, 2026. The restoration would have to happen within 15 days after the bill becomes law, and the exhibits would have to appear as they did on January 21, 2026. The bill would also bar the Secretary from adding, removing, destroying, or changing these exhibits without the express approval of Congress. Covered exhibits include interpretive or educational exhibits, signs, plaques, and other displays.
