What this bill does
In plain words · AI-written from the official summaryCommemorative coins honor 25 years since 9/11
This bill directs the Treasury Department to mint and sell special coins to mark the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks and the National September 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center. When people buy these coins, a surcharge from the sale goes to the memorial and museum to help pay for their operations and upkeep, unless the coin sales exceed certain limits set by law.
How it affects you
This is a commemorative coin—it's meant to honor the 25th anniversary of 9/11 rather than create a direct change in everyday life for most people. If you're interested in numismatics or the memorial, you could purchase these coins, knowing that part of the price supports the museum's mission.
