Welles Remy Crowther Congressional Gold Medal Act

This bill would award a Congressional Gold Medal, after his death, to Welles Remy Crowther, who helped people escape the World Trade Center's South Tower on September 11, 2001, and died when it collapsed. The Secretary of the Treasury would make the gold medal, which would show his image and name. After it is presented, the medal would be given to his mother, Alison Crowther. The bill also allows the Treasury to make and sell bronze copies of the medal, with costs paid from and sales money returned to the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund.
