Congress wants everyone to remember and learn about the history of slavery by holding a special event each year around August 20th, where people think about what happened in the past and say "Always remember."

H. CON. RES. 116 is like asking for permission to use a special room called Emancipation Hall in the Capitol Visitor Center for a big event to remember a day called Slavery Remembrance Day on August 10, 2024. The plan is to get everything ready with the help of someone called the Architect of the Capitol, but it doesn't say exactly who will take care of the details or how the money part will work.
