The bill updates the federal charter of the National Woman's Relief Corps, changing its legal home base from the District of Columbia to Illinois and relocating its main office from Springfield to Murphysboro, Illinois. It also updates who can legally receive official paperwork or lawsuits on the group's behalf, shifting that role to the Illinois Secretary of State or another office designated under Illinois law.
The National Woman's Relief Corps, a congressionally chartered organization supporting veterans and preserving Civil War-era history, is the only entity directly affected.
This is a housekeeping update that keeps the group's federal legal records accurate and consistent with where it actually operates; it does not create programs or affect the public.
