✦ Plain-Language Summary

This resolution urges the U.S. Congress to preserve and respect the true history of national park sites, especially the Stonewall National Monument in Greenwich Village. Stonewall is a landmark site honoring the 1969 LGBTQ+ uprising that sparked the modern gay rights movement. The NYC Council is calling on federal lawmakers to ensure these historically significant places are not erased, altered, or stripped of their cultural meaning.
