Summary of Bill HR 5655

Bill 115 HR 5655, also known as the Camp Nelson National Monument Act, was introduced in the US Congress with the aim of establishing the Camp Nelson National Monument in Kentucky. The bill seeks to recognize the historical significance of Camp Nelson, which served as a Union Army supply depot, hospital, and recruitment center during the Civil War.

The proposed national monument would preserve and protect the site of Camp Nelson, as well as educate the public about its role in the Civil War and the history of African American soldiers who served there. The bill also includes provisions for the management and administration of the national monument, as well as funding for its maintenance and operation.

Overall, the Camp Nelson National Monument Act represents an effort to preserve an important piece of American history and ensure that the contributions of those who served at Camp Nelson are not forgotten. The bill is currently under consideration in Congress, and its fate will ultimately be decided by lawmakers in the coming months.
