          To approve the location of a Thomas Paine Memorial.

Whereas section 6(a) of the Act entitled ``An Act to provide standards for 
        placement of commemorative works on certain Federal lands in the 
        District of Columbia and its environs, and for other purposes,'' 
        approved November 14, 1986 (Public Law 99-652; 100 Stat. 3650) provides 
        that the location of a commemorative work in the area described as Area 
        I shall be deemed disapproved unless the location is approved by law not 
        later than 150 days after notification of Congress that the 
        commemorative work may be located in Area I; and
Whereas Public Law 102-407 authorized the Thomas Paine National Historical 
        Association U.S.A. Memorial Foundation to establish a memorial on 
        Federal land in the District of Columbia to Thomas Paine; and
Whereas the Secretary of the Interior has notified the Congress of his 
        determination that the memorial may be located in Area I: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That the location of a Thomas 
Paine Memorial, authorized by Public Law 102-407 and within Area I as 
described in Public Law 99-652, is approved.
