Authorizing the use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center for a ceremony to present the Congressional Gold Medals awarded under the 'Six Triple Eight' Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2021.

This concurrent resolution, which has passed both the House and Senate, authorizes the use of Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center for a special ceremony. The ceremony will present Congressional Gold Medals that were awarded under the Six Triple Eight Congressional Gold Medal Act of 2021.

The Six Triple Eight refers to the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, a historic all-Black female unit of the U.S. Army Signal Corps that served during World War II. These soldiers were recognized with the Congressional Gold Medal, one of the highest civilian honors Congress can bestow, for their service and contributions to the war effort.

If signed into law, this resolution would provide an official venue and authorization for a formal presentation ceremony honoring these veterans. Emancipation Hall, located in the Capitol Visitor Center, is a prominent space used for significant commemorative events and congressional tributes. The ceremony would allow Congress to formally recognize and celebrate the achievements of this pioneering military unit in a dignified setting accessible to the public.
