One man's mission to (finally) make the bald eagle the U.S. national bird

Summary

69% Informative

The bald eagle is one step closer to being designated the national bird of the United States .

The House passed the bill Monday night , sending it to President Joe Biden to sign into law.

The eagle-emazoned seal was first used on a document authorizing George Washington to negotiate a prisoner-of-war exchange.

It takes an act of Congress and the president's signature to designate any item with the “national” title.

The bill Cook initially wrote and sent to Congress has no money attached to it; it doesn’t even assist in conservation efforts related to bald eagles.

It simply slips a line into the U.S. code between the national tree and the guidelines for inaugural ceremonies that says "The bald eagle ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus) is the national bird".
