Arlington National Cemetery Viewshed Protection Act

This bill would ban building a triumphal arch in Lady Bird Johnson Park (formerly Columbia Island) in the District of Columbia, no matter who pays for it. It would also bar the use of federal money for such an arch in that park. On other land managed by the National Park Service's National Capital Region Office, no triumphal arch taller than 50 feet could be built unless Congress specifically approves it. The bill defines a triumphal arch as a monumental structure with at least one freestanding archway, or something substantially similar.
