AI Summary: This regulation establishes a policy to restore trust in the Smithsonian Institution, particularly its National Museum of American History, based on findings that the museum's leadership allegedly uses American history as a tool for social justice agendas rather than presenting it as a shared national inheritance. The policy directs relevant government officials, including the Secretary of the Interior and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, to use all available authorities to address these issues and ensure compliance with existing laws and directives. It also mandates the installation of temporary signage on National Park Service (NPS) property leading to the museum to inform visitors about the findings of a report, the policy's objectives, and to direct them to alternative resources for accurate historical information, including correcting perceived inaccuracies in museum exhibits, especially concerning the signers of the Declaration of Independence during the nation's 250th anniversary year.
