Bill > SF116

This bill appropriates $200,000 in fiscal year 2026 from the state general fund to the commissioner of administration for the purpose of replacing the existing statue of Henry Mower Rice in Statutory Hall of the United States Capitol with a statue of Hubert H. Humphrey. The appropriation covers the costs of removing and transporting the Rice statue to the Minnesota State Historical Society, recasting the existing Humphrey statue from the Minnesota State Capitol, and installing the new statue in Statutory Hall. The funding is designated as a one-time appropriation and will remain available until the project is completed or abandoned, in accordance with Minnesota Statutes. The bill specifies that it will take effect the day after final enactment, effectively enabling the replacement of the historical statue with a monument to Hubert H. Humphrey, a prominent Minnesota political figure who served as a U.S. Senator and Vice President.
