Bill overview
This bill, the Hawai‘i National Cemetery Act, requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to establish a new national cemetery in the State of Hawai‘i. Currently, veterans in Hawai‘i face significant challenges in accessing burial options due to the limited capacity of the existing National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific and the considerable distance to other national cemeteries. The bill aims to address this inequity by ensuring that veterans in Hawai‘i have access to a national cemetery closer to home, aligning with the Department’s goals of increased access to burial benefits and improved veteran services.
