What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to create a two-year pilot program that would provide headstones or burial markers to certain veterans when requested. The program would cover veterans who died on or before November 1, 1990, and were released from military service under conditions other than dishonorable. Currently, these headstones and markers are only available for eligible veterans who died on or after November 1, 1990. The bill also requires the VA to update its National Cemetery Administration website to reflect the requirements for getting a headstone or burial marker.
