 Approving the location of a Martin Luther King, Jr., Memorial in the 
                           Nation's Capital.

Whereas section 508 of the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996

        Fraternity to establish a memorial on Federal land in the District of 
        Columbia to honor Martin Luther King, Jr.;
Whereas section 6(a) of the Commemorative Works Act (40 U.S.C. 1006(a)) provides 
        that the location of a commemorative work in the area described as Area 
        I (within the meaning of the Act) shall be deemed not authorized unless 
        approved by law not later than 150 days after notification to Congress 
        that the Secretary of the Interior recommends location of the 
        commemorative work in Area I; and
Whereas the Secretary of the Interior has notified Congress of the 
        recommendation of the Secretary that the memorial 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,

SECTION 1. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR., MEMORIAL.

Jr., authorized by section 508 of the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands

(40 U.S.C. 1006(a)).
