Changes the rules that govern how decisions are reconsidered about burying a person or honoring their memory in a national cemetery. It amends section 2411 of title 38, U.S. Code, and removes a specific subsection of the Alicia Dawn Koehl Respect for National Cemeteries Act (Public Law 113–65). The text excerpt does not show the exact replacement language, so the detailed procedural changes are not provided here.
The bill is a narrow, technical update that affects how the Department of Veterans Affairs handles reconsideration requests for interment or memorial honors and removes an older statutory subsection tied to the 2013 Alicia Dawn Koehl law. It appears to be an administrative change without new funding or broad program creation.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
