Summary

Honoring the DACOR Bacon House as a 200-year landmark of American diplomacy, law, and civic life. The resolution designates June 10, 2025 as "DACOR Bacon House Bicentennial Day" and recognizes its layered history: land once home to the Anacostian people, 1825 construction overseen by Tench Ringgold using enslaved labor, ties to Supreme Court justices and the Lincoln Bible, service as a diplomatic residence, addition to the National Register of Historic Places, and long-term stewardship and public programs by DACOR and the DACOR Bacon House Foundation.
