With more veterans choosing burial near home, more state, territorial, and tribal governments in charge of cemeteries are faced with increased operations and maintenance costs. H.R. 5487, the Veterans Cemetery Grants Improvement Act, doubles the current grant limit of $5 million for these purposes. The funding helps address the challenges the Commonwealth faces in preventing the defacing of our veterans' final resting places. H.R. 7105 now goes to the House for consideration. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
