What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Welles Remy Crowther Congressional Gold Medal Act," seeks to posthumously award a Congressional Gold Medal to Welles Remy Crowther. The legislation recognizes Crowther's bravery, heroism, and sacrifice during the events of September 11, 2001, at the World Trade Center. It authorizes the Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate to arrange the presentation of the medal. The Secretary of the Treasury is tasked with striking a gold medal featuring Crowther's image and name. Following the official presentation, the medal is to be given to his mother, Alison Crowther.
