[To accompany S. 4121]
The Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, to which was
referred the bill (S. 4121), to designate the Kol Israel Foundation
Holocaust Memorial in Bedford Heights, Ohio, as a national memo-
rial, having considered the same, reports favorably thereon without
amendment and recommends that the bill do pass.
PURPOSE
The purpose of S. 4121 is to designate the Kol Israel Foundation
Holocaust Memorial in Bedford Heights, Ohio, as a national memo-
rial.
BACKGROUND AND NEED
Erected in 1961 by survivors of the Holocaust residing in North-
east Ohio, the Kol Israel Holocaust Memorial is one of the oldest
Holocaust memorials in the country. For more than 60 years, the
Kol Israel Foundation has preserved and enhanced the memorial.
Buried at the base of the monument are ashes and artifacts of Jew-
ish martyrs killed by the Nazis from three concentration camps.
Engraved on surrounding walls are the names of family members
who perished during the Holocaust, as well as the names of de-
parted survivors.
S. 4121 recognizes the significance of the Kol Israel Foundation
Holocaust Memorial in preserving the memory of the 6,000,000
Jews murdered by the Nazi regime and allies and collaborators of
the Nazi regime; and honors the life and legacy of the Holocaust
survivors, including those who erected the Kol Israel Foundation
