Veteran Burial Benefit Correction Act

Summary

The Veteran Burial Benefit Correction Act would lift the maximum amount the Department of Veterans Affairs can pay for burial and funeral expenses when a veteran dies from a service‑connected disability, from $2,000 to $3,000. It also mandates an annual adjustment of that amount based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. The change is intended to keep the benefit aligned with rising costs for grieving families.
