Bill overview
This bill, the Francis G. Newlands Memorial Removal Act, directs the Department of the Interior to remove specific markers honoring Francis Newlands from the memorial fountain in Chevy Chase Circle, Washington, D.C. The bill mandates the removal of a plaque, a stone projection, and carved lettering bearing Newlands’ name. Any removed items will initially be offered to Newlands’ descendants for a 60-day period; if unclaimed, they will become the property of the National Park Service and be added to the Rock Creek Park museum collection.
