This bill extends the authorization deadline for the National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Foundation to build its previously approved D.C. memorial. Federal law normally caps such authorizations at seven years, and this bill pushes the expiration date to November 3, 2032, giving organizers more time to complete fundraising, design approval, and construction.
The National Emergency Medical Services Memorial Foundation, EMS workers and their families honored by the memorial, and federal agencies like the National Park Service that oversee D.C. monument construction.
Without this extension, the foundation's authorization would expire and the group would need to restart the approval process from scratch.
