Iowa National Guard Heroes Commemoration Act

This bill would rename two Department of Veterans Affairs clinics in Iowa after two Iowa National Guard soldiers who were killed in action in Palmyra, Syria, on December 13, 2025. The VA clinic at 1211 East Army Post Road in Des Moines would be named the "Staff Sergeant Edgar Torres-Tovar VA Clinic." The VA outpatient clinic at 201 East Merle Hibbs Boulevard in Marshalltown would be named the "Staff Sergeant William Nathaniel Howard VA Clinic." Any reference to these clinics in federal laws, maps, or records would be treated as a reference to the new names.
