No, there is no government chamber in Mount Rushmore. Gutzon Borglum had planned a Hall of Records and had started carving the place for it.

Some people did not think Mount Rushmore should be carved because it would cost a lot of money. Some people didn't think that Federal land should be used for the project or that government funds should be used.

Others were concerned about the affect the carving would have on the environment of the Black Hills.
