II 117th CONGRESS 2d Session S. 4382 IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES June 13, 2022 Mr. Padilla (for himself, Mrs. Feinstein , and Mr. Romney ) introduced the following bill; which was read twice and referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs A BILL To require the Secretary of the Treasury to mint coins in commemoration of the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles, California.

1. Short title This Act may be cited as the LA28 Olympic and Paralympic Games Commemorative Coin Act . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) The 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, officially known as the Games of the XXXIV Olympiad or LA28 , will be held in Los Angeles, California. (2) This will be the first time the Olympic and Paralympic Games have been held in the United States in 26 years. (3) The United States has hosted the modern Olympic Games 9 times, with the 2028 Games becoming the third time Los Angeles will host the summer Olympic Games. (4) The Paralympic Games will celebrate its 80th anniversary in 2028, with Los Angeles hosting the Paralympic Games for the first time.
