Bill overview
This bill clarifies the role of the Commission of Fine Arts in the District of Columbia by limiting its authority to only advise on the placement of statues, fountains, and monuments on property owned by the federal government. Specifically, it excludes the U.S. Capitol, Library of Congress buildings, and any property owned by the District of Columbia itself, as well as private buildings and projects. The bill aims to ensure the Commission’s focus remains on federally-owned public spaces within the District.
