The House on Monday approved legislation to begin the process of establishing a Smithsonian National Museum of the American Latino in Washington, following more than two decades of advocacy for a national museum honoring Latinx people, history and culture.⁠
⁠
“The Latino story is an American story, and our history is a central thread in the history of our nation,” Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas), a co-sponsor of the bill and chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, said Monday. “Now, more than ever, America’s Latinos deserve to have our story told and our voices to be heard.”⁠
⁠
The bipartisan bill, passed by a voice vote, follows advocacy that began in 1994, when a Smithsonian task force found the government-administered museums had “willfully neglected” Latinx people and culture in its programs, exhibits and collections.⁠
⁠
Previous legislation to create a museum, beginning in 2003, failed to gain traction.⁠
⁠
Under the House bill, a board would have up to two years to evaluate and select from several proposed sites on the National Mall. Half of the museum’s funds would come from the federal government, and half would come from donors and fundraising.⁠

The Latinx museum House bill now heads to the Senate, where it has bipartisan support. Read more at our link in bio.
