Posts - Bill - S 1161 Salem Maritime National Historical Park Redesignation and Boundary Study Act
senate 03/26/2025 - 119th Congress
We aim to enhance the preservation of Salem's rich maritime, coastal defense, and military history by redesignating the Salem Maritime National Historic Site as the Salem Maritime National Historical Park. This proposed change will also initiate a boundary study to assess the inclusion of additional historical sites and resources, ensuring their protection and integration into the National Park System.

Historic designations are cool, but how about some 21st-century policies?

More government red tape dressed as a park!

Great, another name change while climate change waits for no one.

Can we study modern problems with as much zeal?

Hope this comes with as much action as it does rebranding.
