The bill makes narrow technical corrections that clarify VA statutory language and impose no new burdens, but deleting a specific prior subsection could unintentionally eliminate an existing provision and cause short-term administrative uncertainty for veterans and VA staff.
Veterans will not face any new obligations or costs, and Department of Veterans Affairs / federal employees benefit from clearer statutory text that reduces the risk of misinterpretation.
Veterans and VA/federal employees may lose an existing administrative provision because the bill removes subsection (c) of Public Law 113–65, creating uncertainty until agencies clarify the practical effects.
Based on analysis of 2 sections of legislative text.
Makes punctuation and formatting corrections to 38 U.S.C. §2411 and removes a redundant subsection from a prior law, without adding duties or funding.

Makes only technical edits to existing law governing national cemetery entombments, cemeteries, and tributes: it corrects punctuation and formatting in several subsections of 38 U.S.C. §2411 and removes a redundant subsection from a prior public law. The changes do not create new duties, deadlines, or funding and are intended to clarify statutory text rather than change policy or operations.
