To modify the boundary of the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument, and 
                          for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Casa Grande Ruins National Monument 
Boundary Modification Act of 2019''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) Casa Grande Ruin Reservation was--
                    (A) set aside on March 2, 1889;
                    (B) proclaimed as the first archaeological preserve 
                in the United States on June 22, 1892; and
                    (C) redesignated as the ``Casa Grande Ruins 
                National Monument'' on August 3, 1918;
            (2) the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument protects 1 of 
        the finest architectural examples of 13th century Hohokam 
        culture in the Southwest, which was known to early Spanish 
        explorers as the ``Great House'';
            (3) Casa Grande is only part of the story of an ancient 
        town that may have covered 2 square miles; and
            (4) recent surveys and research have determined that the 
        area of the Great House and the village surrounding the Great 
        House extends beyond the existing boundary of the Casa Grande 
        Ruins National Monument.
