A joint resolution approving the location of a memorial to commemorate the commitment of the United States to a free press by honoring journalists who sacrificed their lives in service to that cause.

This joint resolution authorizes the placement of a permanent memorial in the heart of Washington, D.C., to honor journalists who have lost their lives in the line of duty. By approving a specific location within "Area I"—a high-profile zone that includes the National Mall and surrounding federal lands—the bill allows the memorial to be situated in a prominent area reserved for subjects of historical and national importance. For citizens and visitors, this measure facilitates the creation of a new national landmark dedicated to the role of a free press and the sacrifices made to maintain public access to information.
