 Approving the location of a Martin Luther King, Jr., Memorial in the

        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
