Authorizes the United States Capitol Historical Society, under direction of the Architect of the Capitol, to prepare a feasibility study to determine the desirability of installing within the United Stated Capitol Grounds, at the east front of the United States Capitol, all items of equipment and other facilities required for a sound and light performance, consisting of an interplay of light, music, narrative, and sound effects which when projected onto the imposing facade of the east front of the United States Capitol, will re-create the evolution of American history, based on a foundation of thorough historical research.
Requires the Architect of the Capitol to review such report and submit the same, with his recommendations, to the Speaker and majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives and to the U.S. Senate Commission on Art and Antiquities.
Provides that if the project, as presented, with or without modifications, meets with the approval of such House and Senate officials, the Architect of the Capitol, notwithstanding any other provision of law, is authorized after such approval to accept gifts and expend funds to carry out this joint resolution.
