Commission to Study the Potential Transfer of the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History to the Smithsonian Institution Act

Creates a commission to study moving the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History into the Smithsonian Institution.

Tradeoff

Sets up a study group, not a transfer, so the museum stays where it is for now. The commission must report on costs, assets, and a fundraising plan within two years of its first meeting.
