Bill overview
This bill, the Protecting our Veterans’ Memories Act, aims to provide financial assistance to state and local cemeteries for plots used to bury veterans’ spouses and children. It amends existing law to direct the Department of Veterans Affairs to pay plot allowances of $525 to states, agencies, or political subdivisions that own cemeteries where veterans are buried. The bill expands the definition of who qualifies for this allowance to include surviving spouses, minor children, and unmarried adult children of veterans. The changes will take effect upon the bill’s passage.
