Bill overview
This bill directs the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a comprehensive study of Fort Pillow Historic State Park in Tennessee to assess its national significance and determine if it should be designated as a National Battlefield Park. The study will examine the park’s historical importance, particularly the events surrounding the Fort Pillow Massacre during the Civil War, which involved significant casualties and a devastating impact on African American soldiers. The goal is to understand the site’s value and potential for preservation and recognition within the National Park System.
