Through its programs, the U. S. Capitol Historical Society brings the Capitol into the classroom, the community, and the public's consciousness. We believe that a knowledge of history and government is essential for the public to become involved in the civic process and to be able to make informed decisions for themselves and their community.

The U.S. Capitol Historical Society is a 501(c)(3), non-partisan educational organization. Donations are tax-deductible.
