Red Star Service Banner Act

This bill would create the Red Star Service Banner as an official symbol in federal law to remember service members and veterans who have died by suicide and to recognize their families. The banner would be a white field with a blue border and one red star in the center, with the design approved by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs. Families, veterans groups, businesses, schools, and government buildings could display it, and it could also honor first responders who died by suicide. The bill states that the banner does not create eligibility for any federal benefits, and it provides no new funding.
