    How should Congress balance one-time federal funding for this specific memorial against ongoing requests from other historical sites and museums nationwide?

  2. 02

    What evidence exists that current admission revenue and private donations are insufficient for the memorial's operational and security needs?

  3. 03

    Should free admission requirements for military members and first responders be a condition of federal funding, or should that decision rest with the nonprofit operator?
