This bill would officially recognize the National Memorial Day Parade in Washington, DC, honoring Americans who died in service. It highlights the parade’s history, reach, and purpose: a large annual event that teaches the nation about Memorial Day and honors fallen heroes through reenactors, veterans, service members, and music along Constitution Avenue and from historic sites nationwide.
It also lets the Secretary of Defense support the parade, including using active-duty and reserve units, and using federal funds for ceremonial displays of small arms and munitions appropriate for honors.
