tv_txt: I One Hundred Eighteenth Congress of the United States of America At the First Session Begun and held at the City of Washington on Tuesday, the third day of January, two thousand and twenty-three H. R. 1096 AN ACT To require the Secretary of the Treasury to mint coins in commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of the United States Marine Corps, and to support programs at the Marine Corps Heritage Center.

(3) The United States Marine Corps has established itself as a leading military force, always prepared for tomorrow’s challenges and to contend with the future character of war. (4) The United States Marine Corps continues to exemplify the warrior ethos that has made it a fighting force of international repute. (5) All Americans should commemorate the legacy of the United States Marine Corps and recognize the significant contributions the values embodied in the Corps have made in protecting the United States against its enemies.

(8) The United States should pay tribute to the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps by minting and issuing a commemorative coin.
