Bill Summary
AN ACT To award 3 Congressional Gold Medals to the members of the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men’s Ice Hockey Team, in recognition of their extraordinary achievement at the 1980 Winter Olympics where, being comprised of amateur collegiate players, they defeated the dominant Soviet hockey team in the historic ‘‘Miracle on Ice’’, revitalizing American morale at the height of the Cold War, inspiring generations and transforming the sport of hockey in the United States.
AI Summary
This bill aims to honor the 1980 U.S. Olympic Men's Ice Hockey Team, famously known for the "Miracle on Ice," by awarding them three Congressional Gold Medals. The legislation recognizes the team's extraordinary achievement during the XIII Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid, New York, where a group of amateur collegiate players defeated the dominant Soviet hockey team in a historic match that symbolized American resilience during the Cold War. The bill provides for the creation of three gold medals to be displayed at significant locations: the Lake Placid Olympic Center, the United States Hockey Hall of Fame, and the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Museum. The legislation highlights the team's impact, noting that their victory inspired generations, transformed hockey in the United States, and led to a significant increase in USA Hockey registrations and American-born NHL players. The Secretary of the Treasury will be responsible for designing and striking the medals, and the bill also allows for the production and sale of duplicate bronze medals to cover the associated costs. The gold medals will be considered national medals and numismatic items, and the expenses will be charged against the United States Mint Public Enterprise Fund.
