Lets families get VA headstones for loved ones who died before November 11, 1998
This bill would let families get headstones, markers, and burial containers from the Department of Veterans Affairs for certain loved ones who died before November 11, 1998. Currently, these benefits are only for those who died on or after that date. This change would make more families eligible to receive these benefits for their deceased veterans.
Today, only individuals who died on or after November 11, 1998, are eligible for Department of Veterans Affairs headstones, markers, and burial containers. If this bill becomes law, it would remove that date restriction. This means certain individuals who died before November 11, 1998, would also become eligible for these benefits. Their families would then be able to receive them.
