HR Bill 807 Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act

Purpose and Summary

Chamber: House

Introduced date: 2023-02-02

Bill 118 hr 807, also known as the Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to authorize the minting and issuance of commemorative coins in recognition of the contributions and sacrifices made by working dogs in the United States. Working dogs, such as police K9s, military dogs, search and rescue dogs, and service dogs, play a crucial role in various aspects of society. They assist law enforcement in detecting drugs and explosives, aid in search and rescue missions during natural disasters, provide support to individuals with disabilities, and serve alongside military personnel in combat zones. The Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act aims to honor these brave and loyal animals by creating a commemorative coin that will serve as a lasting tribute to their service. The proceeds from the sale of these coins will be used to support organizations that provide training, care, and retirement services for working dogs. If passed, this bill will authorize the minting of up to 50,000 $1 silver coins, 400,000 half-dollar clad coins, and 750,000 $1 gold coins. The design of the coins will be selected through a public competition, with input from stakeholders in the working dog community. Overall, the Working Dog Commemorative Coin Act seeks to raise awareness of the important role that working dogs play in society and provide support for the organizations that care for these invaluable animals.
