H.R. 988: To amend title 36, United States Code, to move the place of incorporation and domicile of the National Woman’s Relief Corps to Illinois, to move the principal office of such Corps to Murphysboro, Illinois, and for other purposes.

The bill aims to amend the United States Code concerning the National Woman’s Relief Corps (NWRC). Here are the main points of the proposed changes:

Change of Incorporation and Domicile

The bill proposes to move the place of incorporation and domicile of the National Woman’s Relief Corps from the District of Columbia to Illinois. This means that legally, the organization will now be recognized as based in Illinois rather than in Washington, D.C.

Principal Office Location

Additionally, the bill suggests relocating the principal office of the National Woman’s Relief Corps from its current location in Springfield, Illinois, to Murphysboro, Illinois. This change would involve the organization officially operating from Murphysboro instead of Springfield.

Service of Process Modifications

The bill also updates the rules regarding service of process for the National Woman’s Relief Corps. Specifically, it will:

  • Change the designated agent for legal processes from one based in the District of Columbia to one based in Illinois.
  • Replace the Mayor of the District of Columbia as the necessary contact for legal matters with the Secretary of State of Illinois, or another office designated by Illinois law.

Overall, this bill is focused on administrative changes related to the location and legal standing of the National Woman’s Relief Corps within U.S. law.
