On page 3, after line 4, insert the following:

"NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. The Washington State Global War on Terror Memorial account is created in the custody of the state treasurer. The purpose of the account is to support the establishment and maintenance of the memorial. The secretary of state may solicit and accept moneys from gifts, grants or endowments for this purpose.

Expenditures from the account may be made only for the design, siting, permitting, construction, maintenance, dedication, and educational materials related to the memorial on the capital campus.
