I think it's great that this bill is being considered to establish a Commission to study the potential creation of a National Museum of Irish American History. As a Democrat from FM, I believe it's important to preserve and celebrate the history and contributions of Irish Americans in our country. This could be a wonderful opportunity to learn more about my own heritage and the impact of Irish Americans on American history.
