What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill would allow more members of the military reserves to receive a government headstone or grave marker from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Right now, only reservists who were eligible for retirement pay (or would have been if they were old enough) can get this benefit. The bill would also cover reservists who don't qualify as veterans only because they didn't serve enough time on active duty.
