The bill seeks to replace the New Jersey statue of Philip Kearny in the National Statuary Hall Collection with a statue of Alice Paul, a prominent women's rights activist and suffragist.

The committee will submit a request to the Joint Committee on the Library of Congress for approval. If approved, the architect and Secretary of State will enter into an agreement for the replacement.
