This memorial resolution from the state of Minnesota requests the Joint Committee on the Library of Congress to approve the replacement of the statue of Henry Mower Rice, currently displayed in the National Statuary Hall of the U.S. Capitol. The resolution highlights that the statue of Rice has been on display since 1916, meeting the minimum requirement for replacement as established by the amended act of Congress in 2000. Minnesota proposes to replace Rice's statue with one commemorating the Honorable Hubert H. Humphrey, a notable figure in American history who served as Vice President and made significant contributions to civil rights, healthcare, and various legislative achievements during his time in the Senate.

The resolution outlines the state's commitment to cover the costs associated with the removal and transportation of the Rice statue and the erection of the new Humphrey statue. It also specifies that the Rice statue will be transferred to the County Board of Rice County, Minnesota. The resolution concludes by directing the revisor of statutes to prepare an enrolled copy for authentication and transmission to the Architect of the Capitol for forwarding to the Joint Committee on the Library of Congress.
