Designates Route 66 as a National Historic Trail and outlines management and land acquisition guidelines.

The bill designates the Route 66 National Historic Trail, which includes all alignments of U.S. Highway 66 from 1926 to 1985, extending from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California. The Secretary of the Interior will administer the trail, ensuring it respects and maintains its unique character. The bill prohibits the creation of a buffer zone, eminent domain, or new permits for the trail. It also ensures that the designation does not affect existing authorities to grant easements or rights-of-way, nor does it designate the trail as part of the National Park System.
