This Act may be cited as the ''Louisiana Purchase and Lewis and
Clark Expedition Bicentennial Commission Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

The Congress finds that--
(1) the bicentennial of the Louisiana Purchase occurs in
2003, two hundred years after the United States, under the
leadership of President Thomas Jefferson and after due
consideration and approval by Congress, paid $15 million to
France to acquire the vast area in the western half of the
Mississippi River Basin;
(2) the Louisiana Purchase was the largest peaceful land
transaction in history and virtually doubled the size of the
United States;
(3) the Louisiana Purchase opened the heart of the North
American continent for exploration, settlement, and
achievement, as exemplified by the Lewis and Clark Expedition
of 1803 to 1806, which secured through heroic efforts the first
documentation of the inhabitants, riches, and grandeur of this
new territory of the United States;
(4) in the wake of the Louisiana Purchase and Lewis and
Clark Expedition, immigrants from around the world came to the
American frontier, which became emblematic of the search for
political, economic, and spiritual freedom; and
(5) commemoration of the Louisiana Purchase and the opening
of the West can enhance public understanding of the impact of
Westward expansion on American society and can provide lessons
for democratic governance in our own time.
