What this bill would do

This bill is known as the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Coin Act. It requires the Secretary of the Treasury to mint and issue special coins honoring the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial and the history of firefighters in the United States. The legislation authorizes specific quantities of $5 gold coins, $1 silver coins, and half-dollar clad coins. These coins will feature specific designs, weights, diameters, and inscriptions, and will only be issued during the one-year period beginning on January 1, 2026. The sale of these coins will include a surcharge that is paid to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation to support its mission and programs. Finally, the bill ensures that the minting and issuing of these coins will not result in any net cost to the United States Government.
