Motion to reconsider laid on the table Agreed to without objection.
This concurrent resolution authorizes use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center on June 26, 2025, for a ceremony to present the Congressional Gold Medal collectively to United States Army Rangers Veterans of World War II.
Physical preparations must follow conditions prescribed by the Architect of the Capitol.
