To designate the General George C. Marshall House, in the Commonwealth of Virginia, as an affiliated area of the National Park System, and for other purposes.

This bill makes the General George C. Marshall House in Leesburg, Virginia, an affiliated area of the National Park System. George C. Marshall served in several important roles, including Army Chief of Staff during World War II, Secretary of State, president of the American Red Cross, and Secretary of Defense. The bill puts the George C. Marshall International Center in charge of managing the site and requires the Department of the Interior to work with the center through an agreement that spells out each side's responsibilities. The Department of the Interior can also provide help and money for things like preserving the site and sharing its history, and it must create a management plan within three years of receiving funding.
