Why This Matters
This bill gives the Museum of the Blind People's Movement in Baltimore the official title "National Museum of the Blind People's Movement." It changes only the name and status, nothing else.
If you visit the blind history museum on East Wells Street in Baltimore, it would carry a national title, though the bill adds no federal funding or new services.
Who this affects
Blind and low-vision people · National Federation of the Blind · Museum visitors and researchers
