To authorize the Director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture to support African American history education programs, and for other purposes.

H.R. 7740 would grant the Director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture authority to support and develop African American history education programs. This legislation, introduced in February 2026, is currently under committee consideration and has not yet been voted on by the full House.

If enacted, this bill would expand the museum's role in promoting African American history education beyond its physical exhibits and collections. Citizens would potentially benefit through enhanced educational resources, programs, and initiatives developed or supported by the museum that could reach schools, communities, and the public. The specific scope and funding mechanisms for these education programs would be determined through the legislative process as the bill moves through committee.
