Scipio Jones House Assessment Act

This bill directs the Secretary of the Interior to study the Scipio A. Jones House in Little Rock, Arkansas. The study would evaluate whether the house is nationally significant and whether it is suitable and feasible to designate it as a National Historic Landmark or an Affiliated Area of the National Park System, or to include it in the Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site. The study would also consider other ways to preserve the house, consult with interested groups, and estimate costs, but it could not consider options involving federal purchase of the property. The Secretary would report the results to Congress within 3 years after funds are first made available.
