Instructions: In this task, you are given text for US Congressional and California state bills, your task is to generate a summary for this bill.
Input: SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) Hours after the attacks on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii,
Imperial Japanese forces launched an attack on the Philippines,
cutting off vital lines of communication to members of the
Armed Forces of the United States (referred to in this Act as
the ''Armed Forces'') and Filipino troops in the Far East under
the command of General Douglas MacArthur.
(2) On December 8, 1941, the 200th Coast Artillery
Regiment, successors to the New Mexico National Guardsmen who
made up part of the famed ''Rough Riders'' of the Spanish-
American War, were the ''first to fire''.
(3) Despite being cut off from supply lines and
reinforcements, members of the Armed Forces and Philippine
troops quickly executed a plan to delay the Japanese invasion
and defend the Philippines against that invasion.
(4) By April 1942, troops from the United States and the
Philippines had bravely and staunchly fought off enemy attacks
in Bataan for more than 4 months under strenuous conditions
that resulted in widespread starvation and disease.
(5) By maintaining their position and engaging the enemy
for as long as they did, the troops at Bataan were able to
change the momentum of the war, delaying the Japanese timetable
to take control of the Southeast Pacific for needed war
materials. Because of the heroic actions of the defenders of
Bataan, members of the Armed Forces and other Allied forces
throughout the Pacific had time to regroup and prepare for the
successful liberation of the Pacific and the Philippines.
(6) On April 9, 1942, Major General Edward King, whose
troops suffered from starvation and a lack of supplies,
surrendered the soldiers from the United States and the
Philippines into enemy hands.
(7) Over the next week, troops from the Armed Forces and
the Philippines were taken prisoner and forced to march 65
miles without any food, water, or medical care in what came to
be known as the ''Bataan Death March''.
(8) During this forced march, thousands of soldiers died,
either from starvation, lack of medical care, sheer exhaustion,
or abuse by their captors.
(9) Conditions at the prisoner of war camps were appalling,
leading to increased disease and malnutrition among the
prisoners.
(10) The prisoners at Camp O'Donnell died at a rate of
nearly 400 per day because of the poor conditions of the camp.
(11) On June 6, 1942, the prisoners at Camp O'Donnell were
transferred to Camp Cabanatuan, north of Camp O'Donnell.
(12) Nearly 26,000 of the 50,000 Filipino prisoners of war
died at Camp O'Donnell and survivors were gradually paroled
from September through December 1942.
(13) Between September of 1942 and December of 1944,
prisoners of war from the Armed Forces who had survived the
horrific death march were shipped north for forced labor aboard
''hell ships'' and succumbed in great numbers because of the
abysmal conditions. Many of those ships were mistakenly
targeted by Allied naval forces because the Japanese military
convoys were not properly labeled as carrying prisoners of war.
The sinking of the Arisan Maru alone claimed nearly 1,800 lives
of members of the Armed Forces.
(14) The prisoners who remained in the camps suffered from
continued mistreatment, malnutrition, lack of medical care, and
horrific conditions until they were liberated in 1945.
(15) The veterans of Bataan represented the best of the
United States and the Philippines, hailed from various locales
across both countries, and represented true diversity.
(16) Over the subsequent decades, the veterans of Bataan
formed support groups, were honored in local and State
memorials, and told their stories to all people of the United
States.
(17) The United States Navy has continued to honor the
history and stories of the veterans of Bataan by naming 2 ships
after the battle, including 1 ship that is still in service,
the USS Bataan (LHD-5), in memory of their valor and honorable
resistance against Imperial Japanese forces.
(18) Many of the survivors of Bataan have died and those
who remain continue to tell their stories.
(19) The people of the United States and the Philippines
are forever indebted to these men for--
(A) the courage and tenacity they demonstrated
during the first 4 months of World War II fighting
against enemy soldiers; and
(B) the perseverance they demonstrated during 3
years of capture, imprisonment, and atrocious
conditions, while maintaining dignity, honor,
patriotism, and loyalty.

SEC. 2. CONGRESSIONAL GOLD MEDAL.

and the President pro tempore of the Senate shall make appropriate

war, in recognition of their personal sacrifice and service during
World War II.

Public Enterprise Fund, an amount not to exceed $30,000 to pay for the
cost of the medal authorized under section 2.
