A bill to authorize the President to award a gold medal on behalf of Congress, collectively, to the Tuskegee Airmen in recognition of their unique military record, which inspired revolutionary reform in the Armed Forces.

This bill authorizes the President to award a Congressional Gold Medal to the Tuskegee Airmen as a collective group. This honor recognizes their distinguished service during World War II and their role in motivating the eventual desegregation of the United States Armed Forces.

While this legislation does not change federal laws or public programs, it serves as the highest expression of national appreciation for these individuals' historical contributions. For citizens, the bill ensures the official preservation of the Airmen's legacy through the creation of a unique gold medal for display at the Smithsonian Institution and the production of bronze duplicate medals for public purchase.
