## Summary

**Excludes the White House and its grounds from a specific section of the National Historic Preservation Act.** The bill would amend 54 U.S.C. §307104 by removing the phrase "the White House or its grounds" and adjusting the surrounding wording. That change narrows the reach of that division of the law so the White House and its grounds are no longer covered under that particular provision.
