[[underlined]]Museum Support Facilities[[/underlined]]

No Congressional action has as yet been taken on S.857 and H.R.4541, to authorize the Smithsonian Institution to plan museum support facilities.  However, it is possible that the Subcommittee on Library and Memorials of the Committee on House Administration and the Smithsonian Institution Subcommittee of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration will hold a joint hearing on these measures in May.

The Office of Management and Budget has advised that it has no objection to the legislation.
