“General Francis Marion, also known as The Swamp Fox, was a pivotal figure in the American Revolutionary War and is deserving of commemoration here in our Nation's capital. No Federal funds will be used for this memorial project; and the design, the construction, and the maintenance will proceed pursuant to the Commemorative Works Act. Furthermore, while this memorial will be authorized for placement at a site here in Washington, DC, it will not be on the National Mall. We support passage of H.R. 5057. The bill was introduced by my good friend from South Carolina, Congressman Joe Wilson.”
